nuevasync also supports shared calendars, which googlesunc does not. yet.
What sucks is that you can only have one exchange server setup at a time. Since this is yet another exchange implementation, you'll be stuck with only your google calendar and contacts. That means if you must use exchange for work, such as myself, this is a no go.
I thought that was the case. That sucks, I'm in the same boat.
Actually there is a little known hack which will let you sync with more than one exchange server.

i still wish i could get something like the blackberry google sync option on my windows devices.
There is a service www.vufone.com that sync all Google information into your mobile.
Thanks for the tip Susur. Unfortunately, the hack only applies to the Windows Mobile 6.
Working for free accounts.
Not working for Premier Accounts (yet) - my iPhone registers to my Premier account, nothing synchs.
vufone.com is really cool. I tried it with my Nokia N95 and SonyEricsson K810i and it works perfectly. all my contacts, calendar, messages and files are synchronized with the web and with Google calendar and contacts.
this was available like a year ago: NuevaSync.com where's the push GMail? that's the question
I found out with this new feature, plus by using an additional feature of "google calendar sync", you can sync your Outlook calendar to your google calendar, which in turn can be pushed to your mobile device.
the downside is that you have to keep the google calendar sync client running on your PC that's running Outlook to ensure calendar syncing. Since the only Outlook I use is my work Outlook, this is working out for me, even though it may just be slightly cumbersome. I hope someone else will find it useful.

If the Google sync app doesn't work for you, or doesn't have the functionality you need, you can try my free sync app, ActiveGcSync: http://www.milow.net/public/projects/activegcsync-project-page.html
Alternatively, you can synch all your Google stuff using "Seven", including Email (Gmail or Google Apps mail), Calendar & Contacts. Still in beta, but I've been using it for 2 months and am pretty happy with it.

keep in mind that if you are in US setting up the device, upon each email account set up, it will charge you for international text. This has been widely discussed on the ppcgeeks forum, and the seven support forum for that matter. I thought I'd pass that on.......

I hadn't noticed this. But if its only one text when you first set up, then its not really a major issue.
SEVEN is actually way past beta. If you use services and have data plans from AT&T, Sprint and other carriers in the US, you can get full access to SEVEN in production.
My biggest complaint is the fact that you can not sync more than one calender at a time. I will stick with oggsync for now and keep the left eye on Google at all times.
I do however like Latitude and find it interesting and keep wondering the true use of it.
If you're a Google Apps user, you'll need to enable Google Sync in the control panel. If you don't have an option called "Mobile Settings" under "Service Settings" on the control panel, you need to set your control panel to "Next Generation". I posted some instructions here:
