Default Multiple Devices Sync Contacts, Calendars, Etc. POP3

I currently am running Outlook 2003 and am looking for the proper
solution to my problem. I use 4 different devices to connect to
Outlook and if I add a contact to one device it does not get updated
on the next device. Is there a way to have a shared folder which I
can access even though I am using a POP3 account and not a Microsoft
Exchange Account. I read all the things about possibly purchasing a
3rd party to set-up an Exchange Server for my company, but I was
wondering if anyone knew the best strategy here? The four devices are
my SmartPhone, 2 separate laptops, and a desktop. If anyone can even
lead me in a better direction I'd be very grateful. Also I am a
novice programmer in Access so if there is any lead to information if
I must write a macro that will run to automatically save the contacts
file.


You should be able to use the Smartphone as the intermediary, synching it
with each of the three PCs. I use a PDA to keep home and work synched.
Alas, I can't check more than two PCs right now, though.
