Default REAL exchange support

a few of my thoughts & questions about android/htc magic

i dont really know how much you can mess around with the code, but what i think would be really great is gmail with exchange support. well, all my exchange mails would land in the gmail client but with the exchange label, and the same for contacts and calendar. does anyone know if this is possible? or is google planning some native exchange support for 2.0 maybe?

and i wonder have anyone been able to 'extract' the htc activesync function from the htc builds and used it for the ion or vanilla builds?

right now im running the stock htc build on a nordic version of the htc magic, whats the real difference between the htc/ion/vanilla build of android?

not sure why you need Exchange Support when you have Google Services running with Mails, Contacts & Calendars sync up in Android. for me can forget about the support and enjoy the Natively Run Google services.

I too really want a working exchange solution, Nitrodesk works but is more server intensive than the iphone say.

I keep my fingers crossed something happens soon

i have the htc rom, but it has a flaw, it doesnt support exchange servers that requires pin security

And it doesnt support user names with a space in them, massive oversight really.
