(contacts,calendar etc) to my corporate BB

 

I use Google Sync religiously.  However, I am not hooked to a BES.

Contact sync works well, and I've yet to encounter any issues with it.  

Calendar sync works properly about 99% of the time.  The other 1%,
something happens on the Outlook end where Sync gets a little confused
about an event arbitrarily.  Once in a while, every time the computer
syncs from the Outlook end, it will delete the event and recreate it in
the calendar.  Soon, you have thousands of deleted events cluttering up
the Deleted Items folder if you don't catch it or rarely empty that
folder. Be careful of that.  Otherwise, keep in mind that when set to
Automatic, the phone will only sync every two hours or when a new event
is created or modified on the phone.

The only truly terrible Calendar-modifying application on BlackBerry is
Facebook.  That application tends to wreak havoc in my calendar causing
me to rebuild my calendar by resetting Google Sync.  I'm not sure what
is going on with their implementation of the calendar, but that works
about 50% of the time properly.  But that's off topic. :)

Thanks,
