Mac Sync Finally Comes to the Danger SideKick

Posted by timothy on from the happy-now dept.

drenalin writes "After many months (years for some early adopters) of waiting, users are finally able to see the light of day for Markspace's, MissingSync for the HipTop. This is an iSync conduit which allows users to sync their calendar and address book over the Internet to their SideKick from T-Mobile. For many Mac users this is the one feature that now finally makes the SideKick a nearly perfect device."

  1. Well it's about fucking time by gseidman · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I've been waiting for this for, literally, years. I kept hearing that it was coming, then wasn't, then was, then wasn't. Very frustrating. Since I'd heard it was coming early on I'd put all my information on it, but some stuff I could only bring to it by hand (e.g. my list of friends' birthdays that I'd imported into iCal), and everything on it I could only get off by hand. For that matter, I'll be moving soon and intend to get a nextgen HipTop (not sure if I'll wait for the one that should come out some time this year, if they keep to their release-every-year schedule) cheap by taking advantage of a new activation and a new number, but I need to take my info with me. At long last, I can.

    I guess I'm happy, but it might just be relief from years of frustration.
