    Knee jerk zealots, f****** retards that embarass the other Mac users.

    I do not use Smartphone but I respect other people's decision to use what is best for them.

    MS Smartphones are nasty.

    Better to support a product that actually works, and is based on an open platform: Symbian. All Symbian phones support SyncML, which is what iSync is based on. No need for kludgy hacks like PocketMac, iSync supports Symbian phones out of the box!

    Plus, what self-respecting Mac zealot is going to use a phone from Microsoft? Icky!

    SonyEricsson or Bust

    I will stick with my Sony Ericsson T610 w/ bluetooth, isync, and Salling clicker. Can your M$ phone control your powerpoint, iTunes, DVD, etc?

    I am not giving one more dime to M$ to integrate with a Mac. Now if Apple could just come up with a REAL office suite that's cross platform.
