I have a silver q and want to do the MOL2 update, but apparently you can only do this on a pc. Any news on a mac solution (besides running Windows on your mac)?

I did it via Parallels Desktop ... Worked like a charm ... However, I am not sure how you would do it if you don't own a copy of windows. Hmmm...

Make sure and back up everything using Missing Sync for Windows Mobile. If you aren't already, this will allow you to sync your Q with your Mac. Then stop by your local VZW. They should be able to do the update for you.

Where do I get Missing Sync?

I just recently purchased a MacBook but still have my Dell Laptop, if all else fails (plus my work computers for now are PCs).

Missing Sync is available from Mark/Space. To my knowledge, it will not allow you perform updates. Back up all your data on your Mac before doing any updates.

Thanks, I will backup my data on my Mac, and if need be bring my Q into the Verizon Wireless store for the backup (or use my spare Windows PC).
