The program in question has been dubbed "Blackberry Media Sync"—and it will make it possible to transfer music to the phone via iTunes.

(from the BB page, it seems as the synch with iTunes would be available for a bunch of different BB models, I could be wrong.)

Sounds great until Apple boys reconfigure itunes to not sync. Should have kep that one a secret until launch!

Nice little feature but I have a Zune. Way better then an iPod in my opinion.

I don't see why Apple should have a problem. We pay for the songs we get off iTunes, and we should be able to sync them with any cell phone...
I would still use my iPod but it would be nice to use my iTunes with my Blackberry device..

No offense meant.. and not flaming (intentionally, anyway) - but, that's laughable...

Ya I don't think apple would have a problem with it, except...they have a little thing called the iPhone...so I guess it remains to be seen...

Zune FTW, I've seen 3 people within the last two months each go through an ipod that isn't even a year old.

.....now that's laughable.

I concur, Zune it way hotter, my buddy is on his 3rd Ipod and still doesn't want to crossover
