Newton Sync Utility for Mac OS X

Posted by pudge on from the this-is-almost-tempting dept.

zdryer writes "The Newton refuses to die! John Anderson has released nSync Public Preview 1, a Newton sync program designed for Mac OS X 10.2. It's rough right now (only supports serial connections, only syncs clock and AddressBook), but Anderson has big plans (TCP/IP connections, iCal support) and an open plug-in architecture. Also, once he sells 300 copies @ $34 each, he's going to release the source under a BSD-style license."

  1. Sad news ... Stephen King dead at 55 by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Horror/Sci-Fi writer Stephen King was found dead at his Maine residence this morning. Apparently, Mr. King was raking some fallen leaves on his lawn when he was bitten by a black adder and succumbed to the poison venom only a few short minutes later. I'm sure he will be missed by the Slashdot community - even if you didn't enjoy his work, the guy could bake one hell of a souffle. Truly an American icon.

    ...the first 300 suckers who have to pay for it! Ha!
