Just wanted to do a quick post on a new site that I have been building over the last few weeks. Nikeplusedit has been created so that you can create nike+ run files from scratch to upload into Nike+ when you have missed a run with your Nano, your battery died, or whatever really. Check it out, and leave me some feedback if you find it useful/crap.

Sorry for the lack of updates. I’d like to say it has been because I have been ridiculously busy at work and just haven’t had the time to post, but the opposite has been very much true - work has been particularly uninspiring, to the point where I just don’t want to sit and write at a computer for a while about techy stuff. Anyway, some inspiration has hit me this morning, so I’m going to bash out a post on making your Mac work with your M600i in a friendly way. It’s also worth noting that the P990i also runs on UIQ3 like the M600i, so all the steps below also apply, as do the problems outlined with the M600i communicating with the Mac.

To explain a bit more, the Sony Ericsson M600i is a particularly nice phone, but along with the P990 it really doesn’t play with well the Mac. Out of the box it’s not possible to sync contacts or calendars, or even mount the internal memory or memory card on your desktop. Basically, it’s a pretty closed system. So, what follows is a quick round-up of how to accomplish basic transfer and syncing capabilities, and ways to go beyond that if you really want.
