Yes for a Palm Device, most of the Skyscape references are supported on MAC. The exceptions are: Desktop products, Smart Update. Skyscape resources cannot be installed from a MAC to a pocket PC device, since installation requires Active Sync software and this is not supported on the MAC. Skyscape resources cannot be installed on the MAC desktop/laptop for use on that platform.
