Mac OSX PDA's....?

I have been a Palm user for nearly 12 years but have only been an Apple convert for a bit less than 4. I experienced my last "Windows needs to close for whatever reason" screen prompt for the last time and have never looked back.

My problem now is that I detest cell phones but love PDA's and it's getting to be nearly impossible to find one without the other any more. My current Tungsten T5 is a great tool, but it's Bluetooth usage is limited on my iMac, since most of the software only works on PCs. As well, I bought a WIFI card for it only to learn that synching via WIFI is once again ONLY supported on PCs..... Palm was apologetic that they don't fully support the Mac operating system but assured me that things may change in the future. Yeah, yeah, I've heard that one before....

Does anyone know of any PDA that works with Apple even so far as to the exclusion of Microsoft on the market today? I'd love to find one and I'm sure I'm not alone here.....
 
For compatibility with Mac Palm is far superior to WindowsCE or BlackBerry, both of which have their own headaches. The Palm software on the Mac is pretty poor, but at least it is better than the other options and does work. And Palm have been promising that better Mac support is in the pipeline since 1998 - I've yet to see it.
 
There's MissingSync. Great tool. Enables more than just _your_ PDA, but certainly does things well for the Tungsten line. Like Bluetooth Synching. WiFi Synching. iLife integration (some), etc. -> http://www.markspace.com/
