Google Docs and other Google Mobile Applications

**msherpa** · 07-21-2008, 02:56 PM

I am fairly new to Blackberry but not new to Google. I want to know if anybody out there has had experience (good or bad) with Google Docs. Google Docs and other Google Mobile applications can be found at Mobile

Any insight would be helpful as I, along with many of you, are waiting for the official 4.5 release. Thanks!

BTW, I have an 8320.

Google is a great company in everything they do... I love everything they have developed.

The mobile apps are no different... they are amazing!!

I use Gmaps, Gsync and Gsearch in my BB and they are great!

I agree 100%. I haven't really found a Google product that I do not like.

Ok, I'm going to try and download Google Docs since I need the ability to review spreadsheets. It's my understanding that I still won't be able to edit until OS 4.5 is out...correct?

You don't even have to ask...the Google java mobile apps are fast, simple, and indispensable. I use Google Maps Mobile and Gmail Mobile - could not do without them...

I tried google sync to sync my outlook 2003 calendar with google calendar and my 8320 curve.... I ended up with about 7 entries for each appointment. Seriously disappointed. I removed it after about 2 days.

But can you edit with these apps?

**kgworkman** · 07-24-2008, 04:39 PM

I just installed 4.5 a few days ago (8700C) as a beta tester for our company. So far I've had major issues with google maps (crashes and doesn't come back - battery removal time), and minor issues with Gmail mobile (throws minor errors, can read mail, but it's all lost after you exit).

Has anyone else here seen similar isses?
