Guys, as the topic says...

My wife's contemplating getting a Samsung Pixon. But she'll need it to sync with our Mac - calendar, contacts, to-do list etc.

Does anyone know if this is possible?

Thanks

No, it's not possible I'm afraid.

The phone does have SyncML which is required for iSync compatibility... but whether Samsung or a third-party can, or will, create an iSync Plugin for this phone is unknown at the moment.

At a guess, and on past experience, I would say it's unlikely to happen.

Thanks for the reply jools.

I guess this puts the samsung out of the running then. Shame cuz it seems like a nice phone.

I'm not surprised with the amount you coughed up for yours

Maybe the Innov8 will have more chance of being compatible with iSync being S60 n all...

LOL! Rub it in!! It wouldn't have been that bad had I not needed to send it back to Italy.

And innov8 would be great. Alas tmobile don't have it. And they also don't have any decent blackberry's.
