This is how you setup Touchdown for Android 2.0/2.1 by Nitrodesk with an Exchange 2007 Account at Sherweb. I could not find any specific instructions for this here, or on Sherweb's site. So, why not write them myself!
You can download Touchdown in the Market Place by searching for "Touchdown" Ensure you choose Touchdown for Android 2.0/2.1 as there's a couple of different versions.
Oh, and until I can figure out how to get a proper screen shot, this is as good as it gets!
Once it's installed and you have Touchdown started, you will see this screen.
Touch the Gear to get started with configuring.
You can use the Quick Configuration button for simplest setup.
Now you'll be back at this screen again, and it should be happily syncing with exchange. But we're not done yet! Go ahead and click that gear again.
The one important item you might want to look at is the Choose Folders button.
Scroll down this screen and choose any other folders you want on your Droid. If they're greyed out, they won't be on your droid.
Now Click OK, then scroll to the bottom and click Save. You're now all setup with Touchdown for Android 2.0/2.1 and a Sherweb Exchange Account!
