I have a confession to make. I bought a MacBook. That's not the worst of it tho... not only did I buy a Mac, I really like it
 It's sexy as hell, fast, it was great value and I'm even becoming quite attached to OSX! Oh, and I forgot to mention that it syncs GREAT with my P4550, courtesy of 'Missing Sync' from 'Mark/Space'.If you're a Mac user, i'm pretty certain you'll already have heard of Missing Sync. For those unfamiliar, probably the easiest way to describe it is 'ActiveSync / WMDC for OSX'. Doing so would be something of an injustice however, as unlikely the aforementioned applications it's featured packed and ultra reliable  The latest release of Missing Sync has just become available - version 4 - which adds a host of new features - not least of which is Windows Mobile 6 support. From the Missing Sync page... QUOTE Windows Mobile, meet Mac OS X The Missing Sync for Windows Mobile lets you easily connect and synchronize Windows Mobile Smartphones and Pocket PCs with your Mac. Features at a Glance
The number of supported sync options puts ActiveSync / WMDC to shame in a big way. Call log sync, video encoding for download to the device, SMS message syncing and many other options are things Windows users can only dream of. Oh the irony! The price? $39.95 for new users or $24.95 upgrade (free if you purchased Missing Sync in the last 60 days)... now if only they'd do a Windows version P  -------------------- My current devices of choice - HTC Touch HD (Miri 6.5 v11), White T-Mobile G1 (Haykuro ADP1.5Hr3-A2SD), Samsung Blackjack II (6.1 stock)   |

Like you, I have also abandoned the Microsoft Beige box and joined the Mac Brigade. I was fed up with waitng for the kettle to boil - sorry, waiting for Windows to get to a usable state and all the patches and updates etc etc. Now I have a machine that not only starts up and is ready to use in 20 seconds but also 'just works' and looks real handsome.
And, I have the option of booting into Win XP via Boot Camp, should I need it. About the only reason I will have to use XP is for installing apps or ROM upgrades for my HTC Tytn. I have also been using The Missing Sync for about 5 months with no issues at all - even syncs my Tytn iTunes playlist! |

On my Kaiser at least, I just enable internet sharing via bluetooth and select 'Join network' on the Mac Bluetooth menu bar item.

I do the same thing with my Samsung i600 - enable Bluetooth PAN and then just select Join Network. Works well.
