PDA compatibility on OS X

[3mors]

I'd like to buy a HP HX4700 or other PDAs with a 640x480 (VGA) display

my question are:
- what's better? i read about hp hx4700 and asus a730w
- how much is the grade of compatibility with mac os x and bluetooth (i mean isync, managing tools etc etc, not the normal use using wifi and pc/mac networking)

thanks

Here is a list of compatible PDAs and phones for iSync:

It doesn't look like the HPs are on there (it seems that only Palm-based PDAs are supported now)... there may be workarounds available, though.

ok thanks, we'll see if compatibility will be enlarged with tiger

Sorry but you CAN use that device with Macs right now.

MissingSync provides support for many PocketPC and Palm devices including the machine you want. I'm using my new Tapwave Zodiac2 with my new Mac mini quite happily. Good luck with whatever you choose.

great, it seems to support many devices included the i-mate smart phones
