According to the release notes for the latest beta release 1.1.1b3, iPhone support isn't included. http://wiki.songbirdnest.com/Release_Notes/1.1.1b3 * The following are not yet supported by Songbird (will be planned * for future releases): o Video Import/Playback, Podcast Import/Playback, CD Rip/Burn, iPod Touch/iPhone I admittedly haven't looked very hard, but I haven't seen or heard of any support for iPhone syncing that didn't involve iTunes unfortunately. -- Glenn
