How can I export my Outlook 2010 contacts and calendar to the iPhone without having iTunes on the PC?

Question

I've upgraded to Windows 7 x64 and iTunes is giving me all sorts of problems (hanging, crashing) so I've decided to run it from my Mac mini.

However, I need to get my Outlook 2010 contacts and calender onto the iPhone. I figured that I might be able to export them to the OSX address book and calendar, but this doesn't appear to be the simple task I thought it would be.

Anyone know how to transfer contacts and calendar from Outlook 2010 to the standard OSX contacts and calendar apps?

Solution

Use Outlook 2010 to sync with Google Calender and Google Contacts, and then use Google sync to sync the Contacts and Calenders OTA.
