This definitely makes the iPhone more viable as a smartphone. I would still be surprised if the integration is ActiveSync though. I would really expect that Apple would do what Palm did and license Good Technology, or do what Nokia did and license BlackBerry Connect. Historically licensing Microsoft technology to compete with a Microsoft product doesn't usually pan out so well.
