I'd guess based on my limited knowledge of syncing and iCal file format,
that the Google Blackberry sync app is tracking the event IDs/serials, and
somehow knows when another sync tool has changed items.

In any case, this is the only issue blocking adoption at my office. Love the
contact sync, though it seems to have broken some entries on the Blackberry
(searching by first name no longer works?!?). I bet a general addressbook
cleanup would fix that one.
