what PDA best for iSync?

I'm going to ditch my old Treo600 and switch carriers to probably cingular because they have great coverage in my part of the country. Any suggestions?

powerbook, Mac OS X (10.3.9)

If you like the Palm OS, stick with the just-released Treo 680 from Cingular, which is a much improved, Bluetooth-equipped smartphone otherwise very much like the Treo 600, though somewhat smaller, lighter and without an external antenna:

Lets be brutally honest here, the Palm OS is done for in the medium term. I have moved over to a Nokia e61 running Series 60 3rd edition of Symbian. Nokia are tardy at supporting the Mac, but there are some very good people in Germany called Nova Media (www.novamedia.de) who do some first class conduits which I would recommend.

If you want to go down the Windows route, Mark/Space has support for Windows Mobile devices. A lot of people like their conduit software. I had big issues getting it to work with my previous Treo 650; so you pay your money and take your chance.

In addition, Apple natively supports a good number of devices that provide PDA functionality natively.
