In addition, even with direct line of sight, most WiFi solution won't don't have enough power to go over a block and half (and most certainly won't go through a city block).Ī more pragmatic solution is something like a background network sync, i.e. That would require your laptop and all your mobile devices to have Wi-Fi on all the time, which would reduce their battery life to about 2 hours. Note: If you are an Entourage user, I hear they have some pretty good Mac conduits for that.
My suggestion is to use Missing Sync with Palm's Addressbook and Calendar conduits for now. )Īnyhow, MarkSpace of Missing Sync claim they are working on a future solution. Otherwise, you might get a tad frustrated. It is usable if you use only basic information in your addresses and appointments.
The advantage is that these programs link up with many other programs on the Mac (eMail and what not). ISync: This is a 'bridge' that makes your T3 sync with Apple's iCal and Addressbook. Allows you to share your Desktop internet connection with it. Missing Sync: This replaces the Hotsync engine of the Palm Desktop. The Calendar and Addressbook is separate from Apple's iCal and AddressBook. However, Bluetooth syncing is a tad glitchy, so you probably want to keep the USB cradle handy. Palm Desktop: Works great on the Mac with the T3.
