I don't think you will see iSync, or iCal on the PC iPod. That, I guess, is the lure. The following is a copy of what's included with the iPod PC version from Apples tech page.
Earbud headphones, AC adapter, FireWire cable; support for optional remote control; PC model includes 4-pin to 6-pin FireWire adapter.
So both the cable and adaptor are included with your model. But, it sound like you answered your own question on that. As far as transferring to your mac, I don't know.
