With fifty million Windows mobile devices in use around the world, it’s obvious that people like them, even though they’re not the huge selling blockbusters like the BlackBerry or iPhone.
But with all of the phenomenal devices on the market, why would Mac users buy a Windows Mobile Pocket PC, Smartphone, or Pocket PC Phone?
Here’s the answer: Macintosh freaks know their tech devices and they realize that both Macintosh and Windows design the best state of the art devices and software. But the trouble with using a Windows Mobile Pocket PC, or Smartphone is that they don’t synch with Windows Mobile devices without some tinkering. And that’s a hassle.
But wait – things have changed: someone’s come up with a synching solution called PocketMac for Windows Mobile 5 & 6. Windows Mobile 5 & 6 lets you sync contacts, calendar, tasks, email, and more with the Windows Mobile 5 & 6 and your Mac functions like Entourage, iCal and Address Book. You can also upload 3rd party software and themes from your Mac to your Windows Mobile Pocket PC or Smartphone, easily and seamlessly.
You can sync your Contacts, Calendar and Tasks. You can also sync your Macintosh Word and Excel docs, your iPhotos, Daylite, Now Contact and your iTunes and MP3 player.
PocketMac is a wonderful outfit which is run by two Mac devotee brothers, Tim and Terence Goggin (one does the design and engineering, the other handles marketing). They’ve been designing and engineering custom software that enlarges Macintosh user’s options for close to ten years. When they saw the new Windows Mobile devices that came out about a year ago, they recognized their quality and wanted to make easy synching options for Mac users. After all, many of the applications that Windows mobile devices are good at, like graphics, music, movies, flash content, wireless networking, games, and web browsing – are the same things that Mac is number one at.
PocketMac for Windows Mobile 5 & 6 synching requires: 10.4 (Tiger), or higher, 14MB free disc space on your Mac, one available USB port, Windows Mobile 5/6 device, Windows Mobile 5, Windows Mobile 6 – 6.1 and Macintosh Universal application.
Mac users take heart: now you can have seamless two-way synching between Macintosh and your Windows Mobile device. This is awesome news for users of both devices, as great, easy synching has been problematic for the Mac user for many Windows devices for quite a while. Now you can have both, seamlessly and easily.
