Actually, going back to a mini filofax like I had before mobile phones had calendars is quite tempting!

Gmail Calendar

yes it's looking like the answer is based on that. A helpful YouTube video has got my iPod 2-way syncing with Google calendar. But Outlook's putting up a fight and only letting me use that calendar read-only. Google says I need "Google Apps for Business". Do I want "Google Apps for Business?"

Alas you are about a week late as Google pulled support for Outlook Sync on 30th January

I'm guessing those signed up prior to the cut-off date are keeping their service?

What's the alternative (from Google) for those who weren't signed up prior to the end of January?

I think they're pushing CalDAV for calendar, CardDAV for contacts.

...both of which are "pull" rather than "push" right? @Google:
