Mac Gets BlackBerry Desktop Manager, Finally

RIM must have finally snapped to what a lot of BlackBerry owners could have told the company a long time ago. BlackBerry owners use Macs, too, at least a lot of them do. It's not smart to assume that all Mac owners use iPhones; there are quite a lot of Crackberries among the Mac faithful. The lack of Mac support for the BlackBerry Desktop Manager (BDM) should have been an embarrassment for RIM, and perhaps it finally realized that, as there is official word of the Desktop Manager appearing on the Mac platform in September of this year.

The BDM for Mac looks to be as full-featured as the Windows version:

• Sync your iTunes® playlists, calendars, contacts, notes and tasks
• Add/Remove applications
• Update your device when new software becomes available
• Backup and restore your device data with such features like automatically scheduled backups and optional encryption
• Manage multiple devices
