Without thinking about compatibility, I went and bought a CA-42 USB cable to connect my phone. Apparently Nokia only offers a driver for Windows. Whoops.

I successfully managed to google one for OS X, but now I'm not sure what application to use to connect with the phone. I tried using a shareware app called OnSync, and that didn't connect.

Can I find something that will do this, or would I be better off just buying a bluetooth adapter and using iSync?

I'd recommend just getting the BT adapter for your computer and use iSync. BT adapters can be found as cheap or cheaper than the cable and iSync supports the 6103 natively. It'll work wonderfully and you can forget the headaches. Do yourself a favor ...

Heh, and now I find out my outdated version of iSync 1.5 isn't compatible with my phone. Supposedly OnSync works with it - has anyone used this program to connect a 6103?
