A 10.6.9 appears in the works. (Or they had at some point planned it but then cancelled?)

The various other former-MobileMe syncing features (bookmarks, calendars, contacts) I could see disappearing from Snow Leopard, even though calendars should just be standard CalDAV.

*shrug*
CalDAV and CardDAV, yep. Not sure about mail but pretty sure it's IMAP/SMTP.

This thread has the URLs for setting CalDAV and CardDAV up. Not sure if anyone got it to work in 10.6 that way.
