Yeah, I understand their reasons for not releasing a release date. The bad thing is that all I use are macs, heh. I do have a PC, so this is good for that...but I use a mac at work, so syncing stuff between the mac and the PC then becomes an issue.
It's sad that MS and Apple can't get alone very well. It really hurts the end-user, whom likes a little of both company (I like OSX's interface better than Windows by far), but I like the PDAs.
So yeah, I'm now in the unfortunate spot of hack-n-slashing my way through stuff to somehow try to figure it out.
Dunno.

Mark/Space is reluctantly not giving a release date no doubt because of all the flack they took when they didn't release the current version by the announced release date. And even after releasing it a month late, they took even more flack because of a multitude of problems with the initial release.
I feel for them because neither Microsoft nor Apple seem to be helping a whole lot and they (Mark/Space) seem to be doing a lot of pioneering work.
I've actually re-flashed my hx2415 back to WM2005SE so I can use it with The Missing Sync again. And if recent history is a guide, when the first release for WM5 is out, it'd probably be best to wait for the first service pack before trying it.
Poor M/S - they catch a lot of hell when they announce a date and miss it and an equal amount when they don't announce a date (although at least a broad estimate would probably help - something like “1st quarter of '06”).
