[missing-sync-winmobile-talk] WHAT IS THE RIGHT PDA PHONE FOR ME??

Tue May 2 09:07:22 PDT 2006

Hello
Yes I agree the dealer probably only wants to sell the phone they have, 
therefore will tell me the phone they dont have (700W) has too many 
problems.  She just told me that the 700w has general problems with syncing 
and freezing up.  My major concern is the fact that my home computer is a 
Mac.  I have read that you cannot sync the 700w with Macs unless you have 
additional 3rd party software.  Do you know if this is difficult or 
cumbersome?  I do not really need to transfer any info from my old palm to a 
new one as I have not used it for so long.
Thanks'
Elie
