Quicken, Macs, Smartphones…
For those of you who use Macs, you’ve probably installed Quicken at least once or twice. It’s arguably the only reasonable finance management program available for Mac (though there are several alternatives), for a whole slew of reasons; most importantly, it does an adequate job of retrieving transactions from online banking sites..and that’s huge.
But if you’re a Mac user, using Quicken, and also carrying around a Windows Smartphone…you may have noticed that you’re missing something.
I’m personally fond of the idea of having a mobile Quicken interface in my pocket when I’m out and about, and Windows users have been doing this for a long time. There are programs like Pocket Quicken that will let you sync your Windows Quicken up with your Windows Smartphone, and a few others that will let you sync up your Windows OR Mac Quicken with your Palm OS device. Alas, there are no alternatives (that we’re able to find) for syncing up Mac Quicken with a Windows Smartphone.
Hey, Mark/Space - can you add this to your list? Or, if you’ve got some ideas for how to do this, please fill up the comments…
