The missing sync. But it requires SyncServices and there are some nasty
bugs (and limitations) with it.....

I'd suggest Missing Sync as they have been doing this stuff for a long
time. I don't know what their Blackberry support is like as the
product only recently came out but they seem to know what they're
doing. It works well with my Palm.

This is because Office 2008 uses the OS SyncServices instead of the sync
conduit that was available in office 2004 - it won't work with
Blackberry.

Unless Blackberry has another sync method to sync with iCal and Address
Book, you'l have to wait for them to update their end.

figured it out! i was having same problem with error message from my pocketmac software saying it "can;t locate sync tool of entourae 2008"

I was able to sync my contacts from black berry with the address book application on macbook pro. I then created vcards for the contacts in address book and saved to documents. then yo open up entourage, then the address book tab, and you drag your vcards document into there. Done.
