My bad. I thought we were losing the BIS support for Google products. I use BIS to sync contacts and calendar.

Google products work flawlessly on an android and iphone but suck on a blackberry. Why does it have to be this way Jim and Mike?7.1.0.391-Finally have mobile hot spot. Welcome to 2010 RIMM

Google treats addresses as single blocks of text, and fails to handle separate fields properly, so this is the only way to keep Google happy.
Gmail sync is one-way. Mail deleted from the web server will not be deleted from the phone in Gmail. Yahoo mail does it, but not Gmail; I don't know why. - 04-27-2012, 08:22 PM #54
SCREW GOOGLE USE OUTLOOK! Its way better and you can sync using wifi . I have been doing it for years now. Its great! Why give google your contacts and calender information anyway???? Why not keep that on your private PC. Why just hand over your privacy and cross your fingers? Your careless actions have consequences.
