Sync mail, news, files and more to your iPod with Pod2Go

On my post yesterday about MailToPod, TUAW reader John Carey (who's site I've frequented for some time now) commented that Pod2Go not only does email syncing to your iPod, but it has a whole host of tricks up its sleeve like movie times, news, stocks, lyrics, gas prices, directions, horoscopes, text files, a file backup system and even an app/script auto-launching system once the iPod's been mounted. What's even better is there are two handy utilities included in Pod2Go: the first is a slick notes viewer, with support for multiple iPods. The second, cleverly titled Music, allows you to import music from your iPod to your Mac. Smart searching, sorting, customizable import options and drag and drop almost make Pod2Go worth its $12 price just for the *ahem* music backup features.

After tinkering with Pod2Go and syncing some of this stuff, I have to toss my vote in for Pod2Go too, as it works with Jaguar, Panther and Tiger.
