It'd be nice if the iPhone worked with Google's calendaring API vis a vis Exchange.

This needs a lot work. As an example, it appears you can set a task due date but not a time. Also, the Task window needs to be much better. Maybe the next version or the version after that will be better. It is a start, not much more.

Some people don't need exact-time deadlines, but there is no time at all from what i see (just looked at it), thats not exactly a helpful thing to do Task Team...

But i totally agree on the interface, needs some slight work done to it.

I shall certainly use this since i am in Gmail quite often.

This will be great, when there is a Thunderbird extension for it. One more step towards providing a free, online Exchange-like system for non-Outlook users (Thunderbird, Evolution, kPIM, etc.)
