3/17    Anyone using a Windows Mobile based phone and is using a mac to sync/
        backup?  I don't want the current iPhone, but my phone's on its last
        leg, so can't wait for the next iPhone to come out.  I'm considering
        the Moto Q (9h.)  Thanks.
        \_ I think the default iSync for Windows Mobile is not very good.
           Most people I know with a Mac and Windows Mobile use Missing
           Sync:
