I am in the same boat. I used to use nuevasync, and now my MFE is broken and won't allow me to enter anything (see: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=906821)

I installed erminig and set up a sync account with my gmail. If I click either the little sync icon with "1", or the sync icon like a circle, a screen pops up for a quick second and then goes away. That's all it does though. Nothing has been synced on either end. I am syncing it with a new blank local calendar.
