    Basically no.

    http://www.markspace.com has written a $30 routine ("MissingSynch") that
    allows the Samsung I330 to work great with Palm Desktop 4.1 and Isync 1.1
    under Mac OS X (I know I'm running it under 10.2.6 now)
    and presumably if there's enough demand they'll do one for the I500 also.

    I have no connection with MarkSpace other than being a satisfied
    customer.

    Of course it can. You just need Palm Desktop, iSync and the iSync palm
    conduit. I've got it working on my miniPB and I'm able to sync my
    contacts and iCal.

    According to:

    No Samsung Palm Phone is listed as supported.

    It may not be listed as supported, but I can guarantee you that it
    works. I've got it to work myself and there are many other threads
    regarding this issue.

    The Palm iSync Conduit allows most (if not all) Palm devices that work
    with Palm Desktop for Mac to work with iSync. The i500 is one of
    them...

    The primary reason that the i330 didn't work with iSync on Mac OS X is
    that Samsung used a proprietary, kludge-y serial-USB adapter in the
    cradle (and in the optional cable). The phone itself did not support
    USB, and the serial-USB conversion was a non-standard implementation.
    This is why it required specialized drivers for Windows as well (and
    even those tended to be buggy).

    The i500 is native USB.
