I have been considering a Treo 650 purchase for some time now, but I just wanted to clarify the following (salespeople could not answer my questions)...

Glad that you've found Everything Treo! I'll see what I can do to answer your questions.

ust want to make sure the Treo 650 will synchronize with Mac's Address Book and Calendar. Is there any special software I need to make this happen?

The Treo 650 comes with Palm Desktop - a full featured contact management program. HotSync Manager is the program that syncs data between Palm Desktop and your Treo 650. In order to use the iApps, you need to "Enable Palm OS Syncing" for iSync on your Mac. This basically puts the unused "conduits" in Palm Desktop in a "disabled" folder and uses iSync in it's place. It tells HotSync Manager to transfer contacts, calendars between your iApps and your Treo rather than with Palm Desktop.
To answer your question...
Yes, without a doubt, you can use your Mac with your Treo -- and sync your iApps. Some of chosen to use Missing Sync -- which is basically a souped up version of HotSync manager.
Out of the box, you will be able to sync with the iApps. I'm assuming you are running Tiger? OS 10.4. Correct?
