Hi everybody, I'm new to this forum.

I own a Mac under Tiger and am looking for a 3G phone which I can synchronize with my Mac for iCal and the Address Book.

My minimum requirements are at least : flight mode, 1,3 Megapixel cam or more, voice memo, bluetooth, email able to read attachments like pdf, Excel and Word files, voice dialing/recognition, UMTS or even better EDGE

If I could get memory card I would be glad.

What I found most similar to my requirements is the K600i.

Do you know :

- if I can sync it with the Mac, with iSync or another software ?
- it doesn't have EDGE and Memory card, but 34 Mo memory. How many pictures can I store ? Is a few email messages (let say 30), my agenda and my directory/addressbook going to eat up these 34 Mo ???
- is the email able to read pdf at least, and maybe Excel and Word files ?
- is there any better deal for my needs among SE 3 G phones, now or in a near future ? Or any other brand ?

Thanks in advance !

The K600 isn't supported yet, check out this page: http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/isync/devices.html

As regarding exel and word files, as far as i know you wont be able to view them on the k600i, i might be worng but i wouldnt have thought so.

34mb should be enought for what you want and you maybe able to store about 100 pictures at full quality, im not 100% on that but that would be my best guess.

Hope this helps, what you really want is the follow up to the P910 which is due to be shown is september i think

Yeah, hopefully an update to iSync to support all the new devices from isn't too far away. There may be some unofficial iSync hacks that you can do to enable limited syncing in the meantime, but its not guaranteed.

I'm not aware of any non-SmartPhone mobiles that can read Excel and Word files.

Where can I find them, I need to sync my iCal agenda mostly. Can it at least read pdf attachments ?
