BlackBerry alert! BlackBerry Desktop Software for Mac arrives

A TUAW reader zapped us a note with his BlackBerry device to tell us
that as of today, BlackBerry Desktop Software for Mac is available (we
first noted it as "coming in September" back in July).

It's a free download [link], and requires Mac OS X 10.5.5 or better,
BlackBerry device software version 4.2 or higher, and iTunes 7.2 or
newer. Key features of the software include the ability to synchronize
your iTunes library with your CrackBerry, sync calendars, contacts,
and appointments, & add or delete apps and files.

This is the first time that Research In Motion (RIM) has developed
their own solution for syncing Macs and BlackBerry handhelds. In the
past, the company made a version of PocketMac for BlackBerry available
at no cost to Mac-owning customers, and other third-party developers
such as Mark/Space have had BlackBerry solutions available for many
years.
