It works directly with email, calendar,
and whatever native applications you’ve got on Mac and PC. On Mac, it

Microsoft Outlook.

If an email gets sent to you on your
mobileme account, it’ll be pushed to all 3 types of devices. If you
change a contact on your phone, it’ll be reflected to. Same with
changing a calendar event. This stuff all works over the air (cellular
connection).
Jason Chen:
“Not all of us work in large enterprises,”
but will sync your information from up in the cloud down to your
device. It works for Macs, PCs and iPhones. It’ll push information up
and down keeping stuff up to date all the time. Contacts, calendars AND
emails.
