I don't think that Outlook does z-push and that's not a USB Connection either.

Outlook speaks MAPI and of course you can use one of the connectors without 
conflicts. Everything syncs against the server (that's whay a local USB 
connection won't work).

Yes. Kontact for Windows ist still beta, but quite usable, thanks to Andre's 
hard work.

The old webclient was based on Horde, the new is based on Roundcube. See 
announcements on this list or on kolabsys.com.

I have not tested that one yet.

Did you try setting it to the correct folder type? Once the type is correct, 
the contacts should be displayed fine.
