Software

Microsoft Entourage 2008The new version of Microsoft Entourage included in the Office 2008 suite has some notable features missing. Especially if you use a BlackBerry with your Mac. Direct syncing with the BlackBerry has been disabled… AND plug-in support which allowed apps like the missing sync to work has been disabled as well. What gives?

I’m not an Entourage user myself, but I know a lot of folks that are. On top of that many of them carry a BlackBerry as well. I’d be a little peeved about this one to say the least.

Update: Read this article that rebuts the above points (thanks Chris!)

    I have updated to Entourage/Mac 2008 from 2004 and cannot sync my BlackBerry Pearl any longer using PocketMac. This is a major problem. Does anyone have a suggestion about a work-around?
