Question WP7 sync how?

so I've been a winmo user for a few phones now, still really like my TP2 but like to sorta keep up with whats new. I've always liked winmo just for the fact that it just plain works. I can plug it into my pc and it just knows what to do, plain & simple. I can sync it to my exchange server at work and its completely trouble free. No problems syncing to multiple locations after some minor troubleshooting. I work on a pc 9-12 hrs a day and the ability for my outlook work to automatically sync to my phone OTA is ideal. I also work in the office 80% of the time, and in fact, one of my favorite things about winmo is activesync. When I'm in the office I don't sync email, but if I'm working off-site I can just check that one little box and it'll sync email. That way its not dinging in my pocket 60 times a day for new emails when I am in the office. It also means that I don't have to see any new mail notifications at night or over the weekend when I have email sync turned off. Lord knows my ocd brain would HAVE to check those messages if it showed me new mail, and I need my time off.

I write that whole rambling mess to ask this: Can I easily turn email sync on and off with WP7's version of activesync?

I've read quite a bit about WP7, but I haven't seen that answered anywhere.
