Ok, so you have just got your shiny new iphone and are wondering how best to sync your contacts and calender. We if you are a user of Google's suite of applications (specifically Mail, Calendar & Contacts) then you will be pleased to know that syncing these is very easy.
One concern I had was that I would have to access all of these Google applications via the iphone's web browser as opposed to via the Mail, Contacts and Calender Apps pre-installed on every iphone. (Doing so is essential if you want to make amendments and you are in a location with poor or no signal/wifi).
Syncing Google Mail With the Iphone
This is easy. Simply navigate to the Settings App on your iphone then select "Mail, Contacts, Calenders". Under the Accounts section select "Add Account..." then simply fill in the promted fields and away you go.
Syncing Google Calender and Contacts with your iPhone
Ok this is relatively straight forward to however you will need to use a third party service over at NuevaSync. Simply register for an account then set up your account by entering your google account details and telling it which services you want to sync (in this case choose calender and contacts).
Once that is done simply head over here to set up your iphone correctly.
What is great about this is that you can then easily share you fully sync'd calender with your other half or colleagues thanks to Google Calender letting you share calenders with other users.
