I only use the Calendar regularly.  The rest of Google's services can be
replaced with individual services or apps for free or very low cost.  I
haven't found anything else that syncs my calendar well enough to
abandon Google Calendar.  BTW, I'm using a Treo w/ Goosync over the air.

For some reason, syncing contacts and address books is not that
important to the way I work.  Otherwise I might have considered
uploading them to Gmail.  As it is now, I don't feel compelled to use
more of Google even though I use other cloud-based services.
