Microsoft Office integration?

I gather you get a 3-month "teaser" for integration to Microsoft Office365.

Has anyone tried configuring it? What does it give you (email, calendar, Skype, contacts??) The ability to join a Skype call on the move without having to stop driving to start up the call would be really useful for me...

I tried. But no app to support this. Genius was flabbergasted it doesn't work. Ticket send to Munich.

yes this could be a game changer for me too - guessing it'll almost entirely only be available when stationary though...

Got a reply on the ticket.

Office integration does exist on id7. Should be available but is disabled because of malfunction. Will be enabled when it works again.

I've this feeling that there will be a release of a few it guys around Munich in the near future.

"Work productively while still on your way to work. Thanks to the perfect integration of Microsoft Office 365 in the vehicle, e-mails, contacts and diary entries are synchronised continuously with other terminal devices and can be edited directly – even without a smartphone on board.

The benefits at a glance:

E-mails, contacts and diary entries are synchronised with other end devices at all times
Secure and straightforward registration enables work to be carried out in the vehicle even when on the move
Direct adoption of addresses into the navigation system

Note: Precondition to use this service is a valid Microsoft Office 365 subscription which also includes the subservice “Exchange Online” and optional “Skype for Business”.

Seems Skype for Business one click conference call joining will be supported. Class!
