Qwerty phone with a Mac?
aziSep 9, 2007, 8:06 PM
i need to get a VZW qwerty smartphone that can sync with a MacBook. i figure windows mobile devices are out.
what are my best options?
TIA!
...
The Palm OS versions of the Treo's and there is a work around program that allows the windows mobile ones to work.

thanks... two questions:
are the blackberries mac compatible?
and where/how can i find the workaround for windows mobile?
...
I'm not sure about the blackberries.
I cant remember to be honest. I just did a google and used Treo 700w on mac. And a program for like $30 bucks came up.

I have treo 650 and it works great with my powerbook...

Yeah, Palm OS syncs just fine.

... if you want to. But most Mac users don't like Windows anyway.
BUT...
if you do want a Windows phone, you can use a program called "Missing Sync" on your Mac.

i don't mind windows mobile... it ain't great, but it's not the devil.
thanks for the pointer.

I personally love Windows and would not choose any other OS. The Treo 700wx is a fair choice, or the XV6700. Or you could wait for the XV6800 or Samsung i760.

windows mobile is fine.
as for XP/Vista et al, well... after being a lifelong Windows user, i finally got fed up with instability and insecurity... crashing at least once a month gave me migraines.
bought a mac about 6 months ago, and i'll never look back. night and day difference... easily worth the extra $$.
