We’re yet to see full Exchange support for the iPhone - remember, that means calendar and contacts synchronisation as well as push-email - but if your schedule is managed by Google’s online Calendar service then you’re finally in luck. GooSync, whose eponymous product keeps your cellphone and calendar wirelessly synchronised, have seemingly released their iPhone client early (it’s down as being expected Q1 2008), meaning you can now keep appointments and address book updated across both.
