2.1. Device vendor comments

An attempt was made to interoperate between the device and our servers but this proved to not be very fruitful at this event. The device vendor did advise the server vendor on the one defect found for their server: Phone was in different time zone from server. Created a contact on the phone with a birthday, adding birthday to the phone calendar. Synced to server. Contact on server had the birthday on the correct day but the calendar on the server had the birthday on the wrong day, due to time zone adjustment.

Also, a mobile OS contacts (which was the area the device vendor was testing informally) do not match up to other servers’ format for contact data (e.g.a calendaring client supporting vCalendar) especially where differentiations like Mobile (w) and Mobile (h) are concerned.
