[BTM] Why does T68i add "-" to names

It's been a long time so I'm not sure I have the facts right here.  I 
had this problem when I first started using iSync.  It seems it put the 
- character where I had spaces.  It also kept syncing things that 
didn't need it.

I created a copy of my Address book and copied my T68 address book to 
the memory card.  I did the sync, restored from the backup, did the 
sync, etc until iSync quit trying to copy things and it all looked the 
way it was supposed to.  I now have iSync'd reliably for months.  I 
also Sync to .Mac.

The whole sync process is very slow and seems flawed.  However, it 
beats entering stuff twice.

Sorry, my description sounds more like art than science but that is 
what my experience has been 8-)
