It seems that people who choose non-Apple phones will not be left out in the cold :)
 
It always seem to be the minute that Apple get around to adding support for the phone I currently have, I'm about to upgrade to the newer model. :rolleyes:

Ah well, there are some good scripts out there for SE phones, so all's not entirely lost!
 
Huh, the OP list includes the SE k70i, but I use a K790a....wonder if it'll work anyway; I'll have to try over the weekend...

Hi all, i tried to browse a nokia N 70 phone with the usb cable attached, until now i was unable to browse the device or it would even crash my macbook if i tried to open the device, is that now supported to ?
 
I've employed a variety of hacks to iSync my Nokia N80 since I bought it in May 2006. Almost a year later, I finally get official support... though recently I upgraded to a Nokia E61, also supported!

Wouldn't it be sensible for Apple and/or cellphone manufacturers to release decent iSync plugins for their phones whenever new ones are released? I'm betting that if I run out and buy a Nokia N95 when it is finally released in a few weeks it won't be supported on iSync by neither Apple nor Nokia... but within hours the correct script will turn up on the Internet, heroically cludged together with virtually no tools and no quality control, released "as is" to glue the two halves of my technological crown together.

I truly respect these people, but their enormous efforts shouldn't be necessary. If it takes a motivated reverse-engineer less than a day to get iSync and a swanky new model of cellphone talking and syncing, it certainly wouldn't absorb any noticeable resources inside a major telecoms multinational.

Why don't companies just do it themselves, and avoid the angst and embarrassment?
 
Additional phones

If you were disappointed to find that your shiny new Sony Ericsson phone wasn't included this time, this might make you happy!

iSync 2.3 and 2.4 Phone Plugins for the following new SE phones are available here:

Sony Ericsson K320
Sony Ericsson K510
Sony Ericsson K550
Sony Ericsson K618
Sony Ericsson K810
Sony Ericsson W300
Sony Ericsson W610
Sony Ericsson W700
Sony Ericsson W710
Sony Ericsson W850
Sony Ericsson W880
Sony Ericsson Z610
Sony Ericsson Z550
Sony Ericsson Z710
Sony Ericsson Z558
Sony Ericsson V630

These plugins are actually being demonstrated by Sony Ericsson themselves on their stand at the CeBIT 2007 techno-fair.
 
Weren't all of these unofficially supported already? I've had my N80 syncing all the time by only making one tiny edit to a plist file.
 
This is not really 'news'... it even has this list on the isync site. Oh well. No good rumours I guess...

It'll be a nice day when they get a phone from Sharp supported. No biggy. :D

Click to expand...

There's a guy here that sells that kind of thing .... :rolleyes:

Anyway,we're all just waiting for iphone now, aren't we? :eek:

I dunno... at first, I was really looking forward to it. It's still a year away, here in England. Lame. Good things come to those who wait, I guess. Although I never really wait that long.

I just got a sharp 903SH, and whilst it doesn't have isync, it does have a 3.2MP camera with 2x optical zoom - and it's 3G, which is great for emails and/or any net usage.:apple:
 
Motorola v3m?

I have the Red Motorola RAZR v3m but iSync says my device is not supported. Anyone else find this to be a problem? Or know of a plug in I can download?
