iTunes RAZR Coming to US

iTunes RAZRTrue to form, looks like the good ol' US is again going to be late to the party when it comes to cellphones. The Motorola RAZR V3i, which has been available in the United Kingdom for months, is rumored to be hitting American shores some time soon. MacNN got its grubby little hands on some newly released marketing materials which indicate an initial US release exclusively for the Cingular network. The V3i will be the third phone from Motorola to ship with a media player capable of playing music purchased through the iTunes Music Store. The phone, initially slated for release in November of 2005, also sports a 1.2 Mega Pixel camera, micro SD flash card slot, and the same slow, badly designed user interface we have come to love and expect from RAZRs.

Ask TUAW: how to sync between Address Book and Gmail

Hawk Wings has an interesting roundup post covering a number of individuals who are dumping Apple's Mail in the name of Gmail for various reasons. While I've been experimenting with the same thing over the last couple of weeks, I've run into a hangup that I felt worthy of an Ask TUAW post. Since more and more of us are adopting web services for daily operations, I thought y'all might have some thoughts on my situation: I love web services, especially ones like Gmail, but now that I own a Motorola RAZR that can sync contacts and events with OS X, I'm on the hunt for an easy way to keep my contacts synchronized between Address Book and Gmail. I know there are basic export apps that are handy for that initial dump from Address Book to Gmail, but I don't know if using that same method a second time will simply double-up all my Gmail contacts. A two-way solution would be ideal, allowing Address Book, Gmail and my RAZR to dance in perfect geeky harmony.

So what say you, TUAW readers? Have any of you found a way to keep all this software in sync?

Tip of the Day

To get an instant map to any address, just go to your Address Book and right click on the address field of any one of your contacts and select "Map Of." The address will then be revealed in Google Maps on Safari. You can do the same if a data detector determines there is an address in an e-mail in Mail.
