Hi Khurt,

In terms of setting up Gmail through the native iOS app, is this any different than what you describe in your article? It seems that if you go through the set-up for GMail using the "Gmail" icon under E-mail, Contacts, and Calendars, once you go through the steps you can have e-mail and contacts. The only thing you would need to add is CalDav through the process you mentioned above. So my question really is if there is any difference to go through each step as described above or be able to consolidate and just set-up using what iOS is providing at least for mail and contacts. I want a way to be able to enable 2-way syncing of mail, contacts, and calendar entries similar to how I am currently with Microsoft Exchange for Google. I am just trying to understand what I need to do once I upgrade to a newer device after the January 2013 deadline.

Thanks,

Robert
