Google Mobile sync looks like it’s been updated to work with the iPhone, Blackberry, Nokia, Sony Ericsson, and Windows Mobile phones. That should cover the majority of the major smart phone players in the market.

I have an iPhone and now that MobileMe appears to be working I’ve been using that for the most part. Previously I had been using NuevaSync for push notifications via Google applications. It appears that the new updates allow Google contacts to be exchanged via Microsoft Exchange protocol so now iPhone users have the ability to get push notifications directly from Google.

I’m interested in seeing how this works, but since MobileMe is finally working well, I’m not sure if I want to change anything at this moment. I’m in an “if it ain’t broken, don’t fix it” situation. I would like to see how others experiences are and see if I can finally ditch MobileMe or not.

Google has announced multiple inboxes via Gmail Labs add on. It allows you to have you labels in view on your main inbox page. We use Gmail through Google Apps for all of the sites we own and we recommend it to a lot of our clients. While for the most part I use Mail.app or my iPhone to check email, the few times I need to use someone’s equipment it’s nice to have the web app available.

I’ve added Multiple Inboxes to a couple of my accounts and I can see it being beneficial for a lot of users. I can definitely see it helping those with large monitors, but it starts getting hard to read for those carrying small screen laptops. It’s a step in the right direction giving people an option.
