Let Google Sync Your iPhone?
February 16th, 2009
It’s still in beta (as most Google applications are) but now Google has an application that will sycn your iPhone. This concept strikes me as strange, but I guess with this you could ditch iTunes and use something like Songbird and Google to sync everything on your iPhone.
It uses a licenseable Microsoft protocol for the synchronization. Why didn’t Google just write their own? I mean how can they crush Microsoft if they are using their product?
Upon further examination, I think (at least for now) you will still need iTunes. I haven’t tried the Google sync and don’t know that I will. I currently use the Mobile Me sync to keep everything up to date real-time.
Anyone try this yet? If so, what’s the scoop?
