Is there anyone who can tell me wich software is better between Mark/space missing sync and pocket mac to sync my HTC with a mac?

While I haven't used them with a Windows Mobile device, I have used both products with BlackBerries, as well as Missing Sync with a Palm. For the majority of users I have to go in favour of Missing Sync, despite costing $10 more. The polish on the application overall is worth it.

The real nice touches that Mark/Space provides are the Mac-native applications that integrate with the package, such as the Call Log, SMS Log, and Notes applications. It just feels like a more complete solution (and it sure is nice to have a log of SMS messages if you're a heavy texter).

Now, if you happen to intend to sync to and use something other than Apple's built in programs (iCal, Address Book, etc.) or Microsoft Entourage 2004, then PocketMac may be the better solution since it can sync your PDA apps into some third party Mac organizer software.

Mark Space's Missing Sync works very well for me. Version 4.0 is very reliable.

I've used them both and prefer Missing Sync, at least at the moment. PocketMac is supposed to have an updated verision soon according to a tech in that company I spoke with recently. Missing Sync 4.0 still has some issues esp. with some WM 6 devices. Right now with a WM 6 device, if your company forces a device timeout lock that you cannot shutoff/on, than you cannot use Missing Sync at all. I'd suggest that you take a look at the forums at their web site, read the link on the product page to known issues, and google synching a WM smartphone with a mac, and you'll get links to some other informative discussions. Good luck.
