OSX Compatibility
A900 comes with USB cable so I imagine it will be fine with mac osx. 🙂

What I'm hearing about Mac OS X compatibility so far isn't too good. I don't actually have the phone. I'm holding off because of what I've read about the Mac compatibility problem. Check out this link.

I hooked up my phone and I can browse all the directories with the cable connection but I can't copy any files to them. It says I don't have permission or something. Also, interesting, is that I transferred a mp3 and a jpg to the phone over bluetooth and I can't even see them when connected via the cable.

I'm using OSX 10.4 No drivers are required thus far. I can, if I wanted also use the phone as a modem, bluetooth or usb cable.
