With the new Gmail plugin launching not too long ago for the BlackBerry and BIS 2.8 rolling out, we’re starting to see a lot more action from Google.  It looks like a contact syncing option has appeared the the BIS site for those who have Gmail accounts linked to their BlackBerry devices.  So the big question is, will there be any purpose for Google Sync any more? For those who are unaware, Google Sync is a nice little application by Google that allows you to sync your Google calendar with your BlackBerry as well as contacts.  Seeing that contacts can now be synced through BIS 2.8, it seems to be very possible that calendar sync will be a coming attraction.
