Howdy,

Any suggestions here on suitable PDA/phone combos that'll sync nicely with Macs? I was considering the Zaurus, but no built in phone functionality; it's via a CF card that I'd probably end up taking out to put other gizmos in :-(

Sony Clie TH55. (BT + WiFi in Europe).
And some SE phone, like the T630 or 610.

yes, i concur on the Treo 600. but it lacks Bluetooth.

so then there's the SE P900 (pricey).

in a few weeks the Nokia 6600 will be in the US which is great if you want a phone-centric device that does a lot more.

this is not the best time to buy such a device though, as many new devices are due out in a few months.

Only problem with the 600 for me is the low screen res; I'm hanging out for the 610. I'm impatient though and want something now :-)
