Full FeedSynchronize your iPhone address book to your Google contacts
Among the good things brought about by the recently released Mac OS X 10.5.3 is a new feature which enables iPhone users to sync their address book with their Google contacts. It’s a pretty neat application that makes the otherwise daunting task of syncing your contact lists easier to do.
But before you try to synchronize your iPhone address book with Google contacts, it’s always a good thing to back up your iPhone contacts first. That way, you won’t end up having an iPhone that seems like it comes right out of the box with a fresh contact-less address book, in case something goes wrong while your synchronizing. If you’re one of those who don’t need to be reminded about this, then go ahead and start synchronizing now. It’s as simple as going to your Address Book menu, choose Preferences and then hit the Synchronize with Google link. After entering your account and password, the task becomes automatic everytime you sync your iPhone with your Google contacts.
Incidentally, the Google Mac blog wants to inform us that the sync software uses Google Data APIs when communicating with Gmail’s contact. If you are a hard core techie kind of Apple fan, you’d certainly know how important it is for you to know that information.

Hi,
Wondering if OX update 10.5.3 will allow me sync gmail contacts with Address Book without owning a iPhone/iPod touch?
