I'm back to using Google for most things now, with regards to email, calendar and contacts. While the Google Gmail and Google Calendar sync just fine with Mac OS X "out-of-the-box", the Google Contacts is still lagging behind. I'm hoping that, with Google supporting Microsoft ActiveSync and Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" having Exchange Server support built-in, this issue will finally go away.
But until Snow Leopard is released this fall, if you want to sync your contacts in the Mac Address Book with those in Gmail, you'll have to use Spanning Sync. I recently installed and configured a copy, works OK and should get me by until I see how "Snow Leopard" and Google work out.
If you're interested in trying it out yourself, you can download a copy here. If you want to buy a license ($25 for 1 year) you can use my discount code (J4MDCU) to get $5 off.
