Not too long after being leaked on to the internet, Word has come from @BlackBerry on Twitter that Desktop Manager for Mac “might” now be available! Finally Mac users will no longer have to use useless applications like Pocket Mac to sync their BlackBerry. The new Desktop Manager for Mac from RIM also will allow software updates, installation and removal of apps, iTunes Sync, and lots more. As I am writing this post the download link isn’t available on RIM’s website, but it should be there sometime today…

Mac users to get Desktop Manager next year?

Myself I’ve been a long time Mac user, but have always done my backups on a PC. Finally it appears that RIM might actually be doing something to help out Mac users. A source has reported to CIO.com that RIM is working on plans to either develop a Mac verison of their Desktop Manager software or work with third party companies to provide the same features as a PC would have. The new software is expected to be seen sometime during the first half of 2009.

I have to say that if this is true I really hope RIM brings out their own version of DTM as I’m sick of dual-booting my Mac just to do backups and OS upgrades.
