I'd love to be wrong.... of course i have both the WL mobile app and hotmail accounts
go to hotmail contacts (shared with windows live contacts as you know)
http://people.live.com/?rru=contacts
now add a contact or business phone# without email (ie. local restaurant). They need to be emailed or invited to get into "network".
only those in "network" get sync'd in Windows Live (latest version wm6.5).
The fact that you can't force someone in "network" by simpy adding them to contact list without the invite is absurd.
Yes MyPhone syncs but it's totally clumsy and half-baked.

#2: MyPhone backs up- yes, and it also syncs. Don't believe me? Delete something off the website and see if it disappears off your device the next time it "syncs." Let me advise you in advance to back it up somewhere else, because I can promise you it will be gone from your device. So therefore it is not only backing up, but also syncing.
