I recently tried to iSync a Nokia 9300 via Bluetooth on Mac OSX 10.5.2Out of the box it doesnt work. But this hint did work easily! (Nokia doesnt have a plugin on its site for this phone) 

fruux is a lightweight and convenient system preference pane, that syncs your Address Book, Calendars, Tasks and Bookmarks between different Macs. fruux supports sync conflict resolution which will help you when you changed a record on more than one machine. fruux is currently localized in english, german and french. fruux is still in beta, please backup your data!

(iSync doesn’t work with this phone. BitPim doesn’t seem to support either. PhoneDirector MAY have support, but it’s as yet untested. Will test soon as I can manage the 18MB download. Am on the road, connected via this phone only, and the speed’s too painful and expensive to attempt an 18MB download. )
