There are several DataPilot packages available depending on whether you need a cable or not or if you want a "universal" package which includes multiple cables for various manufacturers. See www.datapilot.com for details. BitPim is open source (free) but requires either bluetooth or USB cable to work. See www.bitpim.org for details. There may be others, but these are the two I have seen so far t...
