Well, actually, what I really meant was integration with them: the ability to have the phone's calendar auto-magically sync with Google Calendar constantly (and widgets showing appointments on your screen, such stuff), similarly good gmail support for email client (and a better email program than what modest has been in diablo), etc. that sort of thing. The facebook and flickr logos on the maemo page sort or lead me to believe that this thing WILL have good integration with popular services, so hopefully google calendar sync will be as simple as checking a checkbox and filling in your account name.

I guess what I'm saying that I'm very impressed with the hardware and optimistic about the software, but we'll see =) Hopefully it'll be better than we hoped for and keep getting better with the community's support.
