I recently purchased a MacMini because my PowerMac G5 w/ duel G5s died - CPU1 works half the time. I successfully transferred EVERYTHING from the G5 to the MacMini. Also purchased a used corporate IBM ThinkPad T40 with Windows XP Professional. This ThinkPad is also registered to my iTunes account. It would be great if I could synchronize with both computers.
What I want to know is, can I synchronize my contacts and calendars between Mac and PC through an iPod Touch/iPhone? I recall reading somewhere that the iPod Touch/iPhone runs a scaled-down version of Mac OS X, so I would expect it to use HFS and work with both. When I plugin my iPod Touch to the IBM ThinkPad, it recognizes it as an Apple iPod and asks me if I want to download the pictures on it. I have hfsExplorer, a free Java iPod explorer and it claims the the iPod Touch uses a non-standard HFS file system.
I really like Air Sharing for the iPod Touch - great way to share files anywhere in the world. Wish Apple had built-in this feature since all the other disk-based iPods had that option.
Any suggestions?
