Hi James,

RIM recently released iTunes sync software. It seems to work okay, and you can create a specific playlist for the phone. Or you can just check off the categories, such as music, podcasts, etc.

It, too, doesn’t allow music purchased via iTunes (which is why I purchase my music from Amazon). Alas, the software also doesn’t delete files on iTunes that you delete on the phone — an Apple “philosophy.”

I have an 8GB microSD in the Bold. It works fine, but it takes a LONG time for the Bold to scan the card after every sync. (Perhaps a Bold OS update will improve the scanning speed in the future.)
