I'm still really upset about this. If I update a calendar item on my desktop, it won't update on my device until after a considerable delay or whatever without this. Same with email, I won't necessarily get notified of emails.

This is making my move to Android more and more inevitable, actually. However, for a horrendous reason.

Please reread what you just wrote.

Seems to me that this is _exactly_ the reason google is doing this - to push you over to Android.

You're not paying for gmail/apps, so you're the product, and the product is now being ported to Android. It's really that simple.
