BlackBerry Desktop on Mac adds PlayBook syncing


RIM gave Mac users their first shot at desktop syncing Wednesday by adding BlackBerry PlayBook support to Beta Zone users of its Desktop Software for Mac. The 2.1 release adds two-way media syncing, including photos and videos, without having to use Wi-Fi network sharing like before. Regular features like backups aren't currently available.

The app isn't widely available but should be reach more users soon. RIM had already promised a public version of the app in the summer but so far hasn't narrowed down a release. Windows users have had an updated desktop app since launch.

    Let me know when....

    I really don't see how a Mac user will have a Playbook. May be a Blackberry, but not a playbook. Let me know if you see one.
