I've used it for long with my Nseries devices and it works very well.<br><br>There's also iSync support, which lets you sync calendar and contacts, and Nokia Map Loader for Mac, which lets you download and transfer maps to Ovi Maps Mobile from your Mac.<br><br>Multimedia Transfer has in fact been available for years, as well as iSync plugins. The only thing missing at the moment, really, is firmware updates and backups. Those are still only possible on Ovi Suite (formerly PC Suite) on Windows (or FW updates over the air), not Mac.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[KO]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 20th 2009 2:26PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Desktop Manager coming to Mac in September]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</guid><description><![CDATA[I can't remember the last time Nokia had iSync support for a phone on day one of its release -- usually takes a few weeks. The point is, Nokia views Mac as an also-ran platform and doesn't invest the same amount of time or energy into its Mac support as it does Windows -- so for Mac users, it's an inconvenience.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chris Ziegler]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 20th 2009 2:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Desktop Manager coming to Mac in September]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</guid><description><![CDATA[I hate to say this, but Mac IS an also-ran platform. I'm not putting it down, it's a great OS, but it has nowhere near the market penetration that Windows does. I say this as a Linux user, so I know something about being on an also-ran OS. The reality is that as long as Windows has 90+% of the OS market, most companies don't lose that much by delaying or outright ignoring support for the alternatives. And since Blackberries are primarily known as business phones, and businesses and business people almost always use Windows, they especially lose little by treating Macs as also-rans. If you don't want to deal with that inconvenience, buy a PC and trade for a whole different set of inconveniences.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ravnos]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 20th 2009 4:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Desktop Manager coming to Mac in September]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</guid><description><![CDATA[With that I agree, Chris - Nokia doesn't put the _same_ time or energy into its Mac support as it does into Windows - and it should do more. But it's not that Mac support for Nokia is non-existent or that there aren't ways to get things done.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[KO]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 20th 2009 4:22PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Desktop Manager coming to Mac in September]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</guid><description><![CDATA[yea. i too really wished that they would have a full on suite for mac as they do for pc.<br><br>my nokia phones were the sole reason i have been using parallels and now bootcamp.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[lockstocked]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 20th 2009 6:06PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Desktop Manager coming to Mac in September]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</guid><description><![CDATA[Will it allow USB tethering?<br><br>pleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyes]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Trev]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 20th 2009 2:43PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Desktop Manager coming to Mac in September]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</guid><description><![CDATA[makes it sooooo much easier to help our customers instead of that whack ass pocket mac, RIM thanks from a Bilingual Technical Support Coordinator at VZW]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[N.Rosario]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 20th 2009 2:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Desktop Manager coming to Mac in September]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</guid><description><![CDATA[WTFFF FINA-EFFING-LLY]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[sean]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 20th 2009 3:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Desktop Manager coming to Mac in September]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</guid><description><![CDATA[my sentiments exactly...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[shinbunboi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 20th 2009 11:38PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Desktop Manager coming to Mac in September]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/20/blackberry-desktop-manager-coming-to-mac-in-september/</guid><description><![CDATA[After all these years with basically no Mac support, this couldn't have come at a better time, since the Wireless Update option was removed from the Tour 9630 (or at least from Verizon's model).
