Thanks for letting us know about it. Hopefully the problems get fixed soon. Hi Thomas,

That’s a bit disconcerting about the problem with hosted exchange sync, as I am sure a lot of folks use hosted exchange. Thanks for letting us know about it. Hopefully the problems get fixed soon.

I can't wait to see what else they add, and it's easy to check using the Google Updater program. One problem I've noticed about the calendar sync function (besides the recurring issue you mentioned) is that it only works for syncing items created on the BB or Google Calendar. I also sync my BB with a hosted Exchange server, and items entered either in Outlook or on my Pocket PC that get to the BB via wireless Exchange syncing do not get copied over onto my Google Calendar. Not a huge deal, and a very odd use case, I'm sure, but something I would like to see fixed later on. The new Google services on the BlackBerry are GREAT.

Great to hear from you. Turns out that the program you mention and the one I mention in the post are one in the same. I do look forward to seeing the recurring appointment bugs worked out of it. Thank you for commenting and best wishes for the holidays. Hi Ger !
