I'm set up with Gmail push via Nokia Messaging. Works OK in general - the push is much more convenient than polling if you use email heavily, and the killer benefit is scheduling times when it DOESN'T sync - so you don't get woken up overnight with email arrival alerts, but they kick in again just after your n900's alarm wakes you (to the sound of "I'm only sleeping " by the Beatles ... lovely, it should be the default alarm IMO).

whayt I was obliquely suggesting before was that you might try doing a manual "send & receive" after switching to 3G -no guarantees, but it might kick the polling into life again if its root cause is anything similar to the problem I was describing above. Caveat - I haven't tried this often emnough to satisfy myself that it's anythng more than coincidence that the manual intervention restarts push, so don't moan if/when it does no good :-)

I just checked out the Nokia messaging service and it looks like it's not a free service? No thanks :/

Okay, apparently I missed the fact that you can just set up a Gmail account without using IMAP through the New Account Wizard. I redid my account and using Wifi with a 5 minute interval it alerted me of a new email. Testing it on 2G and 3G now. Hopefully it actually works now.

Mine works over IMAP only if I have it set to 5 minute intervals. Otherwise it won't update on 3G, even if updating manually.
But there is a definite issue - for me anyway - whereby push seems to stop working at or some time after you leave home wifi coverage and go mobile on GPRS. I have messed around with this and empirically, I think that immediately after leaving wifi. if you do a "send & receive" it seems to kick the push back into life?
