I'm doing the same, except I'm also doing the calendar. I find being able to
edit the calendar from any machine and have the changes appear within
seconds on the iPhone is quite useful to me.

I am doing the emails (and yahoo push mail as well). I did originally do
the gmail calendars and contacts, but I could never get them to sync
with the mac. They synced with the two iPhones and the website fine.

So I got a .me account. That deleted all my contacts and calendars, so I
guess gmail was more successfull!

If you're expecting an iPhone to do these things from a phone, you've
probably never had either!
