Contrary to what some people believe this isn’t going to be a Mac version of the Zune desktop software but a syncing tool similar to what was available on the Mac for the Kin devices earlier this year (screenshot above). Not much is known about it but Microsoft is promising a beta before the end of the year for all the potential Mac users who wish to buy a Windows Phone 7 device.

Later in 2010 Microsoft will make a public beta available of a tool that allows Windows Phone 7 to sync select content with Mac computers.
