Good point; I'm surprised about the lack of Mac support for Palm users now; (IMHO) one would think that the mac-using consumer is more likely to use a PDA.
I was just hopeful for a more reliable Palm + Linux option...(but if the new OS turns out to be the handheld equivalent to OS X then that should be pretty cool...)
K-pilot works pretty well, but the warning message to the effect of "running k-pilot can cause loss of handheld data" leaves something to be desired - and while it did sync beautifully with my Palm, some of my contacts disappeared, and the Palm's system clock defaulted back to 2002...maybe it'll get better with the next release?
