I just switched to Mac and love it except let me make sure I have this correct--I can't sync my PocketPC with my Mac? Any creative solutions anybody? I don't want to have to enter everything twice but having my schedule on both my PC and on the go is nice! I suppose I can live without it though...hmmmm

I've heard one option is to use a PC emulator like Virtual PC or such, and apparently that works fine.

I've also heard of some software being developed that will allow syncing to a Mac, but I don't think it's out yet (if it's still even being created).

PocketMac (http://www.pocketmac.net/) sure seems to be available to me. :-)

Whether it's worth the $50 or $70 they're charging for it is another matter.

I forgot I'm not supposed to post after 11 PM or else said post won't make sense.

I know of the 1 software solutoin but aparently it doesn't work very well. Not $50 worth anyway. I really just need to keep my iCal calandar synched with my Outloook calandar. Forget the PocketPC, is there a way to keep iCal synched with Outlook?

I've heard b-a-d things about PocketMac, and very g-o-o-d things about people using ActiveSync on Virtual Windows under Mac OS.

As to syncing Outlook with another program ... you might have better luck looking at sites which specialise in Outlook. Woody's Office Watch ... Slipstick.com (http://www.slipstick.com/outlook)....
