Mark/Space delivers The Missing Sync for BlackBerry

BlackBerry I know, I know, you don’t care about BlackBerry. You don’t want one and its antiquated tactile keyboard. You want Apple’s iPhone. Some people are stuck with yesteryear’s technology. Some even like it. They’ll only admit it behind closed doors after a long session to address their denial. Then they’ll be shunned by their true Apple fan friends.

After the dust settles, the need for good synchronization remains. PocketMac may be free, but everything I’ve heard has been pretty lukewarm to toilet bowl cold. Maybe it’s not that bad. However, if that were true, I wouldn’t expect Mark/Space to be entering the market with their own paid solution.

I use their software to sync my Palm TX with great success, but have no BlackBerry to test the new software with. With that, I command Pat to us his as a test subject. It’s either that or Dan and I give him a swirly after the next podcast.

Great product, but keep in mind for those of you who don't read the EULAs, this is non-transferable. I'd like to give away my copy for Palm OS but I can't legally.

Seems interesting but I couldn't find anywhere a demo trial. I emailed their tech support to find out.

Does anyone know where to get it? Ain't spending a dime on these programs until I am assured they work for my set up.

The fact that they hide the demo and it is hard to reach them gives me a negative first impression. However, I have been burned with PocketMac and the Blackberry team that simply doesn't care nor reply to our problems.
