In Germany the N900 will arrive at the end of october.

Will there be a syncservice from Nokia or from other Developer for the Mac OS X system?
iCal (WebDav) Adressbook

What about tethering. The connection between the N900 and a MacBookPro by Wifi or Bluetooth?

Is it correct, that the N900 supports the IMAP-protocol like Me.com?

Thx for your feedback

Modest, Maemo's e-mail application, supports IMAP(S). IMAP(S) has nothing to do with Me.com.

Tethering should work after a minor edit in config files. See wiki for more information.

The device has SyncML for sync. I don't know what exactly is supported, but iCalendar is a standard, so your question is rather can Maemo 5 import and/or export iCalendar (*.ical)?

iCal also happens to be the calendar in Mac OS X.

After that you'll see fmms.log in filemanager or when you connect the device to your desktop as a mass storage device.
E-mail the log to me, if you don't have the email address, drop me a PM. Thanks!

Yes, iCal is the name of that application, and the extension (.ics as well). The standard is called iCalendar though.

The german nokia support gives me the following answer:

"Sehr geehrter ...,

vielen Dank für Ihre Kontaktaufnahme mit Nokia Care.

Bezüglich Ihrer Anfrage möchten wir Ihnen mitteilen, dass diese Information derzeit nicht vorliegt. Wir können uns durchaus vorstellen das ein iSync Plug In zeitnah zum download Angeboten wird.

....."

They would told me, that it will possible, that the iSync plugin will be available at the start in late Oktober 2009.

Are there any nokia employee here that could be affirm this?

Thx,
Pit

Something you might try is using ScheduleWorld to sync your calendar, todos, and contacts between all of your devices. I've been using it to keep my 2 Desktops(Home and Work), 1 Laptop, 1 Netbook, Google Calendar, and an E51 in sync.

I've really gone off Scheduleworld.

I was using it like flux41 to sync desktop laptop and n800, and made a big effort to get all my contacts together. Then I bought a MacBook, and hola there is no sync for scheduleworld.

Plus, they asked me to pay!
