Gmail adds contact synchronization over the 'air'

Fellow Gmailers and 'techies',

There is an updated sync tool from Google that works 'over the air' and not only synchronizes calendars but also contacts!. I have not tried this yet but sounds like I will be giving it a go later this week.I have been using Google's 'calendar sync' with my Outlook for a while and I love it!

This may not be necessary for me or regular 'Active Sync' users because I sync my contacts already, but it is worth trying out. Anything to assure 'uniform data'!This sounds like it takes that to the next level.
Google Sync uses a Microsoft Exchange server to keep all of your contact and calendar data in sync over the air. If you've added a new calendar appointment from your desktop, Google Sync will push the update to your phone. Likewise, changes you make from your phone are automatically synced to your Google account in the cloud.

If you try it let me know how it goes.
