Do people have a clear preference for one or the other? Right now PocketMac has the advantage of offering a demo. I don't see anywhere that Missing Sync offers a demo.
Thanks,
Bob

I've gotten Missing Sync to work with an iPaq with ease...it integrates with iSync/iCal/iPhoto, etc. etc. very easily...

I far prefer Pocket Mac. For one thing it lets you sync to any number of devices - not just one like MissingSync. Its seems more powerful and offers things like the backup, theme creator, etc...
My biggest beef with Pocket Mac that does not affect Missing Sync is that Pocket Mac does NOT sync recurring appointment exceptions.
A recurring exception is made when you have a recurring appt and then you change one instance of that recurring appt.

Went for PocketMAC, merely because it was able to talk to my Pocket Loox from Fujitsu-Siemens over bluetooth. Missing Sync seemed more streamlined at first, but turned out to have some limitations that I couldn't accept, so... of you go.

I sync PocketMac with an iPaq 3970 via bluetooth. All seems pretty good. And yes, recurring appointments do have a bit of problem with Pocketmac. Although, I haven't really look to much into it, the only issues I have are:
1. Sync via bluetooth is not 100% smooth in that, some times (actually most of the time) I need to soft reset the iPaq before my PB and iPaq talks.
2. My Avantgo doesn't seem to be working.
The Theme Creater thing is sorta cute, putting the blue apple instead of the "Start' button on my iPaq.
