Synchronize with a Mobile

Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: intel
Email Client: pop

I need to synchronize my Entourage (emails, address book and agenda) with my mobile phone. Presently I'm using a Sony Ericsson M600i with Symbian. According to them, there is no way of getting the synchronization.

Please suggest me the best PDA+Mobile phone (2in1) to use together with my Mac in Portugal (Nokia, Samsung, Blackberry, HTC, Sony-Ericsson, Motorola, Alcatel...). Iphone is not yet on the local market, so it's not a choice.

Thank you

Hi Manuel!

You may have a difficult time finding any single piece of software that
will do all that (mail, calendar and contacts) and work with a Mac.

MarkSpace has announced it will soon offer Missing Sync for Symbian
phones including your M600i but I'm not seeing anything about syncing
E-mail <http://www.missingsync.com/missingsync_symbian.php>.

I do see the phone comes with Exchange ActiveSync. If you can afford to
convert your POP account to an Exchange Server or hosted Exchange
account then you could get everything on your phone wirelessly without
having to sync with Entourage. Of course, Exchange hosting would cost
you more but you can usually find reasonable monthly rates.

Hope this helps!
