"Disappointed. Ripped off."
Pros
The existance of the sync software which should sync easily with my MacBook Pro helped me decide to purchase an android phone. The HTC Desire Z. what a great phone
Cons
1. does not work properly. It took about 6 hours to get it set up and "sort of" working.
2. too many bugs
3. flic calendar is poor
4. it's completely confused about time zones in iCal
5. Poor customer support from MarkSpace
6. VERY EXPENSIVESummary
Do not expect this software to work easily with a MacBook Pro ... it does not
Do not waste your money on the missing sync. it is an early beta version that they are ripping customers off by selling. it should be given away free to developers who can help sort out the bugs before they sell it.
Do not think that flic calendar is a good program. It cannot deal with time zone support in iCal and completely changes the times of appointments when moving to a differnent time zone. then next time it tries to change all the correct appointments in iCal. Now I will have to just use it to sync contacts not calendar. what is the point of that?
Even contacts do not sync well. each time I sync, it spends ages reading all 1200+ contacts instead of only reading the ones that have changed since the previous sync. (OK perhaps I could delete at least half of the contacts which are obsolete but why should I need to?)
