I wasn’t sure who I should contact about this, so i am sending this to you. As of late, word attachments coming from my friend on a Windows XP Machine appear as “winmail.dat” files.
When I try to open these, the text runs about 150pp long, (it’s a 4page doc) and the [...]

I don’t know about you sometimes we find files that were downloaded weeks ago and wonder where they came them. Usually on my PC I just shrug my shoulders open it up and see.
Well, it turns out that OS X has this little known feature built-in. You just have to select the file and hit [...]

More specific Spotlight searches for our Mac friends! Spotlight searches are sometimes not as good as they should be, especially if you have a lot of files with similar names.
It is possible to narrow your results down by specifying the type of file you are looking for by adding “kind:type of file”.
This should bring you [...]
Hey boys and girls!
Have you ever been in a situation where you wished you could sync calendars with somebody who is seemingly unconnected? On top of that, you wished that somehow, by some magical force, those calendars can sync automatically, wirelessly and invisibly; involving no further effort beyond the initial configuration, and that this calendar [...]

If they have exchange, they may very well be working with IBM Lotus in the near future as well. It would make massive sense if they did.
Their target is corporate email systems and while Exchange has 65% of the install base, there is the monster that is IBM/Lotus which predominantly runs on much larger enterprises and I am certain that Apple will want to tap into that as well.
If they could lock those two up they would have over 85% of the marketshare for phones/pda type market in which case it would be hard for me to justify Blackberries for the big time guys when they could have the cool, sexy iPhones.
I will probably be ordering one for work on Monday if I can get the CEO’s AMEX as he wants us to test it with some ideas that marketing has for it.
