Sandra:

The scripts that were mentioned only work one way - from the Mac to the Sidekick, not the other way around.


On a related note to the rest of the list subscribers, I thought I read somewhere in an online forum that T-Mobile doesn't quite have it all figured out how they wanted to charge us - but it would REALLY suck if sync had to be a recurring fee. I was hoping that you would buy the M/S software and that would be the end of that. But then again, with the whole ringtone snafu, TMobile wants to milk our pockets. When you consider that C & W users have it for free and that every (or almost every) single PDA/Phone combo comes with sync software, itsa shame that Danger/ TMobile can't get it right.  The fact that the replacement rate in these Sidekicks is abysmal (had 3 B&W, 4 CSK replacements) leaves a lot to say and to charge for sync is a slap in the face so to speak. Don't get me wrong, I love the Sidekick and there's not a single device (in my opinion) that does the job better right *now* at the same price point, but this is getting ridiculous. 

I have had nothing but good experiences with the M/S software (for my Clie) and I will continue to buy their products. I hope that they don't get burned in all of this. 

Once the Motorola A630 comes out OR  if an elegant IM solution comes for the Blackberry *AND* I can sync with my Mac, I'm gone. I like the design of the new Sidekick but unless another carrier pops up on the East Coast (Suncom has only a few states that it serves), then Im going to have to jump ship.

I'm done
