Hi Steve, Below I hope will help you: 1. No to infrared port, iBook does not have one, you can buy USB infrared adaptor but sadly these only work in 10.2 > . 2. Bluetooth with a USB adaptor (from �20) is a no no in 9, fine in 10.2. 3. The next route open to you that will work in 9 (very well I hear) is SoftGSM <http://www.softgsm.com/> downside it's expensive, �80 I think. My advise to you would be to move to 10.2 and use a Bluetooth adaptor, obviously you should pick a mobile with Bluetooth. SonyEricsson models will work the best in terms of syncing names etc, look at the T68 or the new T610. Even if you go with SoftGSM in 9 would be best for the future to go with a phone that has Bluetooth, sadly Nokia seem to lagging behind in this respect. If you need any more or help with GRPS settings etc email me back.
