I have the exact same problem, it is strange how it does that.

Ah yes, I have that one too... I opened a bugreport for this one:

The only problem with that bug report is that google sync is not officially supported, so the bug is pretty irrelevant at this time until they support it.

it isn't? it is working pretty well otherwise... Let's hope they work on the problem and not reject the issue

No, at this time it is not supported. As such the bug will get scrapped for sure (I think one on the same topic already has). It is the most requested feature for mail for Exchange at this time, so I see support as forthcoming, but not quite yet.

That's really strange, because it works rather well. Just the birthdays are off by one day, and some of my contacts names are missing parts.
I created the birthdays as calendar events now, so my current situation is usable.
On to the next bug: Maps (as a whole)

That's not how it works.

If the Nokia developer working on MfE sees this bug, and can reproduce it with Exchange, then he will fix it. It may not affect only Google Contacts, of course.

Let's say it does only affect Google Contacts.

He might close it (works for me or won't fix) if supporting Google Contacts is not a goal at all, and it will never be supported.

Or he might leave it open since working with Google Calendar, while not currently supported, is a goal on his roadmap. That means that the bug may stay open a while, but will eventually get fixed.

So in 2 scenarios of 3, the bug will stay open & get fixed eventually.

Dave.

Yes you are right, it should stay open, but I keep thinking this same bug was opened before but then closed. I may be completely off base though, so in that case sorry.

Just a reminder for everyone, please vote for adding the google sync feature to MfE here: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6343

I did search to see if there was such a bugreport already before opening the new one.

Well I had a quick search and couldn't find any closed bugs about this, but I did find open ones that relate to Google sync, and are kept open:
