Possible to activesync with two devices (Cingular 2125)

Thanks in advance for any help.

I just picked up a Cingular 2125 today, and I absolutely love it. I was thinking about getting the Cingular 8125 so I could ditch my current Pocket PC, but I wanted something that was more phone. Anyway, here's my dilemma...

I love my 2125, and want to use all of it's great windows mobile features, including activesync w/ outlook, etc. As a medical student, I also need a full-featured PDA with a stylus input (currently using an iPaq 2215, and love it). The iPaq uses Activesync 3.7, and the Cingular 2125 comes with v4.1.

I was wondering... can activesync be configured to sync with both windows mobile devices while maintaining separate profiles? How would I achieve this? Or will I only be able to use one device with activesync? I really love the 2125, and I think it would be great to carry it around as my phone with extra features, since I won't need the full functionality of a PPC during every waking moment.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Anyone know if/how this can be done?

Yes it absolutely can be done but I haven't done it in awhile. Best bet is to Open Outlook and do a help search for "Creating new Profile". One method I know works is to create a whole new and separate Personal account in Windows XP. So, when you boot up your computer you log into your Other account. I dont think it is necessary and should be able to create that second account in Outlook alone.
