Perhaps I'm missing something, but the iPhone instructions (<a href="http://www.google.com/mobile/products/sync.html#p=apple" rel="nofollow">http://www.google.com/mobile/products/sync.html#p=apple</a>) tell you to add an Exchange (ActiveSync) account in your iPhone settings, rather than modify your existing Gmail account.<p>This is fine and dandy, unless you already have an Exchange account configured, e.g. for your work email. When I went to add another Exchange account, my iPhone told me that "Only one Exchange ActiveSync account can be configured."<p>Maybe there's a way around this, but Google's dire warnings suggest there isn't ("Important! Google Sync uses the Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync® protocol. When setting up a new Exchange ActiveSync account on your iPhone, existing data may be removed from your phone.")<p>I'll be Googling for a while, but helpful suggestions are appreciated.. (and no, 'suck it iPhone n00b' is not helpful... :))
Why would anyone want to be notified whenever they get an email? People are already incessantly and compulsively checking their email every few minutes, to the detriment of their sociability.<p>This makes email less fun. The few seconds of anticipation when you hit the refresh button on the email client and it starts downloading emails are enthralling; Did that girl from Match.com reply? or is it yet another spam from Amazon/Dell?

I'm finding that even with my Nokia S60 phone ("not yet supported" according to the Google PR stuff) I'm getting Gmail pushed to my device. Worth trying if you haven't already.
