iPod Sync Teaser
Coming Soon

Yummy. Properly detecting iPod, syncing address book, and everything. Very cool.
First release will likely be Windows only, but Mac support is easy once I get things stable. I just don’t feel like debugging on two platforms at once (reformat iPod each time).
Update [12-26-2005]: It’s out, and available here.
Tags: extensions, ipod, mozPod, Thunderbird

I was under the impression that Macs supported PC formatted iPods.

[...] Wie praktisch: Robert Accettura arbeitet an einer Erweiterung für Mozilla Thunderbird, die eine direkte Synchronisation der Adressbuchdaten zwischen Thunderbird und einem iPod ermöglicht. IM Blog des Authors findet sich ein vielversprechender Screenshot. [...]

Please say someone is looking into this for Sunbird/Lightning as well! IE. what does “and everything” mean.

@AW: I’m on that already… but it’s not going to happen until it’s in Thunderbird, and becomes more stable. So it will be a while.

I can confirm that Windows-formatted iPods work on OS X - my iPod is Windows-formatted but I use it on my Mac all the time.
Really looking forward to this - hope development goes well

What about collision with iTunes 6 that now syncs address book from outlook?
