this year.

Google has added push syncing of contacts and calendars for the iPhone via Microsoft Exchange. I’ve set up the calendar sync and it works pretty slick. The only small drawback is that it is limited to 5 calendars, and I have 6 that I’d like to sync (only because I have two birthday calendars: one pushed from Facebook, and another for people who don’t have Facebook). I haven’t tried the contact sync, as my Gmail contact list is a horrific mess. I’ve put a lot of work into my local address book that has most people I email on a regular basis. Now if only Google would activate push email, I’d be a really happy camper.
