Syncing with Server and Laptop using Omnia

I have an Omnia and am using activesync to sync between my phone and server at work. I just bought a netbook running Windows Home so I cannot syncronize my laptop with my server either through VPN or an ethernet connection.

What I'd like to do is use my omnia as my go between. I'd like to set up an activesync connection between my omnia and my netbook. The thinking is that changes from my server side will go to my Omnia and then when the omnia is connected to the netbook, the netbook's calendar, inbox etc will be up to date. The hope is that I can then work offline on the netbook, resync with the omnia and let the omnia resync with my server.

The initial question I have is what is the best way to start this (assuming I can do it.) I already have a server and omnia sync'd. I an old exported .pst on the netbook and I'm afraid if I initiate the relationship, the netbook's data will then overwrite my omnia data which will then overwrite my server and I'll have a mess. Same problem I see it if I delete all the netbook outlook data before the sync if the sync works from netbook to omnia.

I did just do an export of my work outlook data to a .pst so I can recover if anything drastic happens.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me in working through this.

I can not comment regarding enterprise server sync specifically, but I attempted to synchroniz two calendars, my google calendar/contacts via google sync and my work desktop via cable. AS creates two profiles to handle this. I started out with work partnership first, then I initiated the google sync, which caused my personal calendar to overwrite my work calendar, which created a big giant mess. Luckily, all my meeting requests from work outlook were only moved to the outlook recycle bin and I was able to just recover them all back to my calendar. However, I have not re-established the link because of this problem. I sync only files via cable with this PC, not contacts nor calendar with work PC. I now only rely on personal cal/con sync via google sync.

Probably does the same with enterprise sync wirelessly.
