speaking of special requests...

Could anyone verify that the Sony Ericsson Z525a Bluetooth + USB support is working? Especially via Cingular? I'm looking to get a new cellphone and really would prefer that it syncs with iCal. Glitch-free address book support would be nice, but iCal is the important one.

(And yes, of course I'd prefer an iPhone, but I'm one of those who'll be priced out of the first round at least. Here's lookin' at you, version 3 - can't wait until we meet!)
 
It is important to note that some of the syncing issues may NOT be with Mac OS X but with the service provider. Note that Verizon has intentionally crippled many of the bluetooth capabilities of their phones in order to force subscribers to use their pay services such as "Get It Now" and uploading of contact lists. If Mac users are still having difficulties syncing their phones, chances are if you're a Verizon customer it may be for those reasons. As an ex-Verizon customer I had difficulties syncing my RAZR v3 and later discovered it was due to Verizons crippling of OBEX and later crippling of contact exchange. I switched to Cingular and have none of those problems with my RAZR v3.

What about Sprint? I have a Sprint RAZR V3m and I'm having similar issues. However I can file transfer via Bluetooth as I wish... I can put files on the phone and take files off fine. :confused:

I'm having precisely the same problem here! I can transfer wallpaper files to and from the phone but iSync simply refuses to connect to my RAZR V3m, also Sprint. The ONLY thing iSync will let me do is set up an Internet gateway, which I don't want to do.

I think that transferring bluetooth files to and from a phone can be done on any bluetooth phone. As I have a Samsung SGH-T509 and it is not supported by iSync but I can transfer files to and from the phone using bluetooth.
 
Hi All,

I have found that Nokia has started to support Mac users at last!
From page http://europe.nokia.com/mac/
you can download iSync plug-ins also for the latest N- and E-Series phones like N95 and E65... I got plug-in for my E50 and after removing my old "hacked" plug-in it started to work ok.
 
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

These plugins are actually being demonstrated by Sony Ericsson themselves on their stand at the CeBIT 2007 techno-fair.
