"Great little phone - not so great for mac users"
Pros: super slim, great user interface, decent call quality
Cons: no isync even though T-mobile advertises: "connects to your computer without wires"
Summary: I'm a sucker for well designed gadgets and this one is no exception. I also use and love mac osx. After my Razr was stolen, this little t509 seemed to dampen my post razor blues. However, I've had a hellish time importing my contacts to my phone (forget about iCal). I have about 200 so manually typing all of them was out of the question.
It turns out, Samsung doesn't offer any mac support, so I had to turn to 3party app: Onsync. It kind of works but nowhere near as easy as the Razr.

I have a Mac as well. And I have just learned that after having my Motorola v300 and wanting to buy a data cable for it to send my pics to my computer, that I cannot do so because Motorola does not have compatible software support with Macintosh computers. For this reason I am hesitant in buying a Motorola RAZR.
And now that you bring up this issue, what are the available cell phone brands that have compatibility with Mac's???
