Synchronizing Outlook 2010 and a Windows Mobile smartphone

I'm running Windows 7 64-bits (French version). I found that after installing
Office 2010 64-bits (also French version), the Windows Mobile Data center
will no longer "see" the synchronization partnership. After searching for a
solution, I found out that WMDC will *not* be upgraded to support 64-bit
Outlook, which is a totally stupid decision.

Is this decision final, or will someone come to their senses in the
foreseeable future?

In the meantime, is it possible to install Outlook 2010 32-bits and the rest
of the Office 2010 components in 64-bits?

Thank you.

You can contact Microsoft Support directly to ask them for an official
statement and open a case so you can track the progress on it or submit a
feature request (64-bit support). For feature requests no support charges
will apply.

And no, you cannot mix 32-bit and 64-bit when it comes to Office components.
You'll have to use everything in 32-bit or everything in 64-bit. Note that
the current benefit of 64-bit Office is pretty much limited to having large
file support (2GB) for Excel and Access. In pretty much any other case it
is recommended to stick with the 32-bit versions.
