When will iSync be FINISHED?!?!
okay, i'll be the one to ask it... when the hell is this thing going to be complete?!? feels like it's been in public beta forever.
it can't be that hard to get it working. so it leads me to believe that they will only release the final when there is a GREAT DEVICE capable of working well with it (like an advanced ipod...).
anyone here a developer and can give us an idea? i gotta think it'll be done by macworld...

I'm sure Apple refuses to pay licensing fees to Palm so they are probably haxoring their own implementation. Hopefully MWSF will bear the results of Apple's efforts.

I'm amazed how well it works so far.
I am more concerned that Apple is slow in enhancing the current iApps and developing better ones.
And of course the speed issue.
Faster Apple, Faster!

I'm going to try it anyway.
And in the P800 / T68i feature list, there's "remote sync." What the hell is this for, if not for something like .Mac? Why aren't they using it?
Yes, I'm happy it's 1.0 but grrrrrrrrr.
Moaning Harald.
Edit: iSync can't find the P800. I'm going a-hacking to see if I can add the letters P800 to some plist somewhere. I mean, it's obvious this ain't being updated at MW this close so it's a long bloody wait. Grrrr. Grrrr. GRRRRRRRRRRR.

Don't have .Mac do you? The iCal backup via iSync works incredible well...
Did I use iSync to backup my data? No.
Have I learned my lesson? Not really, because even the public beta didn't wipe me out so completely.
What I've learned is to treat iSync with disdain and trust its reliability in the same way to trust a revolver with five empty chambers pointed at my skull.
I expected a great deal more from Apple's software team. You know in iTunes when you 'Clear' a song from the library it first asks for confirmation and then asks whether it should go ahead and delete the song file? That kind of caution and attention is what I expect.
One would think at least one programmer would be working on iSync and think, "Hey, maybe we should offer to backup the data (to anywhere, .Mac or the hard drive) before proceeding..."

haven't used it since <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" />
there should be an option to backup to iPod
(there is a screenshot on the apple site but it only shows phone syncing)
also...
ical is now seriously fast. i'm pleased.
i can't believe there isn't at least some support for nokia bluetooth phones
