:begin rant:
Why can't I buy a single nextel or sprint phone that has isync support? Is it that difficult? It would be nice to switch to another carrier now... but oh wait, I had to agree to one of those $200 termination penalties. So now I'm stuck with a phone service I don't want for god knows how long. Does nextel think this endures customers? Why would I ever recommend the phone again?
:end rant:

Yes, I was a dumbass for getting that type of phone in the first place - it sounded like a good idea when my friend was getting it so we could do the walkie talkie thing... too bad I missed out when they switched on me

Sprint/Nextel have a specific selection of phones. They are apparently the same phones the two companies had before the merger. These phones are not listed as being compatible with iSync. Sorry about that.

On the other hand, I've found that the "supported" list on the iSync site is not always up to date-I found that, long before they listed my Motorola V180, iSync supported it. Don't go just by the list online.

I haven't found anything online that suggests you can use isync with nextel... although I could be wrong.
