Blackberry Desktop Manager Coming Oct 2.

Research in Motion, makers of the Blackberry will be releasing a desktop manager for Mac users coming Oct 2.  The PC version of the desktop manager has been available for quite some time.  Now Mac users will be able to do pretty much the same functions as iPhone users can with iTunes.  Blackberry users will be able to backup their phones data and be able to download updates to their phone.

The desktop manager will also allow users to sync calendars, contacts and appointments with iCal, contacts, and entourage on the Mac.  The desktop manager should also allow you to manage your apps much like the app manger with iTunes.  You may also be able to sync music from iTunes as well.

The desktop manager will require OSX 10.5.5 or higher and Blackberry users must be using OS 4.2 or higher on their phones.
