Mac version of Missing Sync for Palm Pre goes gold, available now
If you've been yearning to get your desktop computer better acquainted with your Pre's quirky personality, look no further than Mark/Space's The Missing Sync for Palm Pre, which has now gone final following a brief beta period. As is usually the case with Missing Sync versions, the software seems to be capable of syncing just about anything you could possibly want to sync down to your handset including ringtones, Office documents, video, podcasts, music, and photos -- plus contacts and calendars over WiFi. Mac's out now for $39.95, while a Windows version is expected "soon."[Via Palm Infocenter]
The Missing Sync now plays nice with WM6
The Missing Sync, the near-ubiquitous peace pipe that lets Windows Mobile devices play nice (and by "play nice" we mean "sync") with Macs, has just been upped to version 4. That in itself isn't huge news -- the new version offers up support for videos, call logs, and text messages -- but what is huge news is that the product now features Windows Mobile 6 support. That's great news for the ever-growing contingent of folks rocking Wings, upgraded Dashes and Treo 750s (and hopefully Blackjacks in the not-too-distant future) who dare to span the Microsoft-Apple divide.[Via TUAW]
The Missing Sync on the way for BlackBerry
For the several Mac users that still give two flips about their BlackBerrys in light of yesterday's events, rejoice: a (hopefully) superior sync solution is near. The Missing Sync, long a staple of those turncoats rolling deep with Windows Mobile devices on their Macs, is getting ready for its coming-out party in BlackBerry form later this quarter. Virtually all BlackBerrys will be compatible with the package, and Pearls will even get to rock some iTunes (sans protected music). Gear up to grab 'er in the next few weeks for $40.[Via TUAW]
The Missing Sync gets friendly with WM5
If ActiveSync has been keeping any MDA users out there from springing for that shiny yellow MacBook, your day has come. MarkSpace has just gone gold with The Missing Sync release 2.5, adding badly-needed support for Windows Mobile 5 devices; we can almost hear the collective sigh of relief of Mac-based Pocket PC and Smartphone users across the world. Of course, if the iPhone would hurry up and materialize, maybe this whole point would be moot -- but until then, sync away, friends.
