Ok, the news first: "Microsoft plans to release on Monday the first significant update to the Mac OS X version of Office and will also introduce a version of its instant messaging program designed for the latest Mac operating system."
This is what caught my eye: "Software that will allow a Palm handheld to synchronize directly with Office will be made available as a free download July 15."
If I recall correctly, Palm has been able to sync with Microsoft Entourage, the Outlook equivalent, since mid-2000. Someone forward this the Microsoft Mac development team along with a gratis iPAQ or something and let them get busy! Thanks to Robert Anderson for the link. So help me if I see any sort of connection between a Palm and the X-Box before there is something for the Pocket PC, I'll scream... again.
