Apple has been pretty slack at supporting new phones on isync recently. I've just got an SE k800i and I had to buy an isync plugin from this website:
http://mobile.feisar.com/phone_plugins_23.html It was $3.60 Australian. It isn't so tough on the wallet. I know on Sony Ericsson phones, your calendar events will be out of sync with what's on your computer if you don't have your timezone and daylight savings set up correctly. So if you are in Perth, go into your phone settings and make sure your timezone is +8 hours GMT and turn daylight saving off. For using your other bluetooth phone functions on your mac Sony Ericsson specifically recommends buying sailing clicker. However, Romeo: http://irowan.com/romeo/ Is a free app to use your phone as a bluetooth remote. I haven't checked to see if works with the k800i yet but it worked fine with my t68i and t630.
