Hi all,

Just a quick question on the thunderbird add-ons for google. As opposed to Zindus I use GContactSync (http://gcontactsync.mozdev.org/) to synchronise my contacts with google. It is not perfect, but it works quite well for my purposes. The two-way sync is a bit shaky so I tend to edit my contacts online or on my phone and just pull in the changes in my thunderbird address book every now and again.

Does Zindus do a better job at this? I must admit that I am quite pleased with my current setup so I have no real incling to change it. But if Zindus beats the stuffing out of gcontactsync I will definitely consider it :).

Cheers,
Joost
