Default Sync google contacts to two BB

I have 2 BB Storms. I need to sync my calendar and contacts to both of them. I use Google Calendar and I am able to sync one calendar to both Storms. How do I sync the contacts from Gmail to both Storms?

AFAIK you can. You need to set up same account in both and voila...

Default Sync contacts on 2 BB

I don't understand what you mean "Set up the same account in BOTH." My contacts are in my gmail account. The other BB has a different gmail address. How do I send the contacts to both gmail addresses?

Thanks for the help.

You can login BB #2 with the email address that has all of your contacts. Let it sync and then login with BB #2 original gmail address or just leave it.

No, I think when he signed out of the 1st account on Google Sync, it would delete the Contacts so he couldn't sync w the 2nd.

To the OP, u didn't really phrase the question well for what u r trying to accomplish. Anyway, if u need to sync the Contacts between 2 diff gmail accts, there are not many options. The easiest thing you could do is create a new Contact group in Gmail desktop called New Contacts and just export that Group back and forth to and from both accts when u have new Contacts.
If u use Outlook, there's a program called gSyncit that will sync Contacts to and from as many diff gmail accts as you want.
Final option, and this is a tricky one, create an acct with Funambol and dl their sync app on both phones. Sign int google sync with the diff gmail accts on each phone but sign into Funambol app w same acct on both. Just sync Contacts on Funambol and start sync w all your Contacts in 1 gmail acct, and empty on the other gmail AND BB. Could be a mess though

Default Black Berry Contacts Sync

I am starting a small business and there will be one employee in one city using a Black Berry and another employee in another city using a Black Berry. I am using Google Apps for my e-mail, callendar, and contacts. My goal is for everyone on the domain to share contacts and for these contacts to be pushed to our Black Berries using Google Sync. The other issue is that I have almost 6,000 contacts. What is the best (cheapest) way to get this done?

Tough to say really. Depends what this new Gmail Contact Sync is like that is supposed to come out at the end of the month. We don't even know if Google Apps email accts will be allowed to use it. Its supposed to push sync Contacts without the current Google Sync app. I don't think the current app can handle 6000 contacts. For as few employees as you have, you might consider upgrading to a Google Apps Premier Acct. $50/yr per user and is supposed to have contact sharing among the paid accts. Or, Gsyncit, read my comment above, is $15 flat fee and works extremely well.
