    Is there a good program for syncing a Mac and the Blackberry phone? I currently have an ATT 8525 which did synced my Windows machine, but since I made the switch to Mac some months ago I find I rarely turn the Windows unit on anymore, and the sync program for the Pocket PC and Mac has a little to be desired. And the quality of the phone, in my experience, is horrible (on my 4th one in less than a year)

    Anyone having any luck using a Blackberry and a Mac? Any thoughts on the best way/program to sync it to the desktop with? Suggestions or opinions?

    Thanks.

    ^Yup, the only real caveat is that you cannot sync over bluetooth (yet). But those guys are constantly pushing out new versions of their software so maybe bt compatibility is not that far off.
