Thu, 07 Aug 2008 Macs now support Sony Ericsson mobiles

That is shockingly expensive for what it does!

I expect Sony Ericsson to pay me for that programme. It should have been in my phone package to begin with.

Pay for that? Shove it, deep. No, I mean deeper.

Hi,

use it, do not shove it :-) As it does much more than just sync your data and once you use it - if only for text messaging, you won´t stop.

It is a maclike phone experience for the rest of us and yes, as always, you have to pay for quality - or need much more time and hassle for other solutions ....

my Mac and SE phones have worked fine together for years, doing a lot of this stuff already. Why pay for it?

This application is shockingly expensive! For syncing a mac and an unsupported SE phone, just check feisar, their software costs just 3€ and works with Leopard.

Its true, SE should ship their phones with mac software included, not just a windows CD. In a way their supporting Microsoft's monopoly. Great idea and too expensive. Also too late - ive bought an iPhone 3G thats coming in a couple of days.

Too little, too late, I switched to the iPhone my W950 is stored somewhere. I do not regret it.

Bit of a deceptive headline as Macs have supported Sony Ericsson phones since at least the T68i in 2001.

Some models aren't supported, especially lately where Apple hasn't updated iSync in ages but as a whole, the headline is inaccurate.

I'm still using a SE p910i with my Mac and iSync successfully and have been doing for about 4 years. apple.com/macosx/features/isync lists all the devices and functions for all phones that will work with it. (I don't use music on my phone so can't comment on that!)

I agree with others above, all my SE phones have been able to sync with my iTunes library, just drag & drop, and use any of the songs for ringtones and alarms - no need to pay for any of it.
