If they fix all of this I will be happy as well. I am not a big fan of having to use outlook. Why, ohh why can’t RIM develop a desktop mngr that has a calendar and contact mngr available. Going through my years with TREO’s and having a desktop mngr I do miss that aspect.

Well Gary you are luck then. I have changed this on google itself and for whatever reason they didn’t sync properly so consider yourself lucky.

I have been using it flawlessly since it came out. no problems and it works everytime!

Don’t expect things from it that aren’t supported. It won’t sync items that are not created in the BB or Google calendar etc.

I have tried this app twice. The concept of the app is great. Problem is it has created mutiple contacts for certain contacts and erased phone numbers for others. Put numerous numbers down for a contact. One contact I had the same number 15 times. I wish they could fix this because I really like the idea.

I have to admit, my life is in google’s hands and I have been dying to find something for any of my phones/pda’s that can sync up my google contacts with them without having to go through outlook or somewhere else first.

I found this and must say that I’m quite happy with it! It gave me all of my contacts in just a few minutes.

The only problems I have are:

1. If you have a contact that has more than 1 number of the same location (as in two mobile or two work numbers), for some reason it will only import the first number. I had a contact that had two mobile phones set (my mistake as I set one to mobile instead of work). Google sync only imported the first mobile number and their home number. Not the mislabled work number.

2. The contact sync isn’t perfect. In google, I had one person that was split into two seperate contacts (apparently a mistake from when I imported from Yahoo into Google). So in google, I deleted one and then synced it with my blackberry storm. For some reason, I still have the two contacts on my storm. Had to manually delete them. Not sure why though.

3. Calendar only syncs up to 24 weeks ahead instead of the entire calendar. I would like the full 52 weeks.

Now I would love to be able to edit my contacts on my storm and then export them to google, but I know that’s a little more difficult. Especially since the storm has a lot more in the contacts information section than google does. But I would still love to see it.

All in all, I’m very happy!

As bad as the previous version crashed my Curve, I think I’ll wait for more feedback on this one before I try again. Thanks for the update!
