ipad

We have a user who has an iPad that is synching to our Exchange 2007 SP1 Server. She is reporting that her contacts are being "eaten", which we take to mean are being slowly deleted over time. This user also has a BlackBerry that is synching through a Blackberry Enterprise Server.

I have two questions -

1) Has anyone run into this situation of "self-deleting" contacts or does anyone have any idea what is going on?

2) Can anyone give insight into usage of iPads in their Active Directory/Exchange environment?
