Microsoft has previously not provided Zune software for Macs, for obvious reason. Now that Windows Phone 7 has launched, however, Microsoft is choosing to be more open.

“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,” said Microsoft in a statement.

This Zune-Mac client is not the full Windows version, it won’t support major software updates for Windows Phone 7 devices and it is not clear how or if it will allow Apple users to access Zune accounts and content.
