I now tested the NuevaSync. Ends up by N900 saying Exchange Server error and creates duplicates of some of my events. NuevaSync's status in their website says sync went OK.
And because of Exchange Server error the N900 won't let me save the Exchange account.
Not good.
I get the same after deleting the N900 calendar to start fresh.
I'm very happy to announce that NuevaSync now works with all the devices that have an Exchange sync capability. Compatible phones include the very new Nokia N900...
Contacts indeed now also sync from my N900 to Google
The multiple calendar merging to one on the N900 does not seem to be solved yet though...
I tried nuevasync again.
Last time I created the MfE account throught the email application, I wasn't able to uncheck the sync email part, it was grayed out(disabled). I just want to sync the calendar, nothing more. As a result I got server error, therefore was't able to save the MfE ac**** and got my calendars filled with duplicates.
This time I created the MfE account from settings / connections / MfE. The settings were identical except through there I was able to uncheck the sync email option. No server errors this time and I was able to finish the MfE account creation. But again I have three months of worth duplicate events in both N900 and Google calendar. So still no go...
I am having problems with MfE to synchronize with Google.(contacts and calendar).
Sometimes it just works but most of the times it doesn't.
I noticed that after a reset it always works for a while.
I had random duplicates when I started using it. I cleaned it up and it works fine. Sadly you may have to put up with it if you wanna go ahead and get to using it.

Thanks, I decided to resync after cleaning up like you suggested. This time it didn't create duplicates and did sync most of the events from the past and the next 2 weeks but left most of the events after that unsynchronized although I have tried 3 and 6 months in settings... weird. But now it already works better than nothing!

Hi, I can explain this: free accounts are limited to syncing back 2 weeks in time.
The multiple calendar merging to one on the N900 does not seem to be solved yet though...
Some background on this :
Our service is designed to service two kinds of device : those that have a multiple calendar capability (e.g the iPhone), and those that don't (e.g. Windows Mobile). The service identifies the device type and behaves accordingly. For devices that only support one calendar, it merges the Google calendars selected for sync onto the device's single calendar.
Now, at present it is our belief that the N900 does not support multiple calendars. "Yes it does!" I hear you say. Well, yes the calendar application on the phone does, but in the context of our service that isn't the important thing. What matters is whether the sync client on the phone will support multiple calendars. There are phones on the market that have a multiple calendar capability, but do not support that feature when syncing with Exchange (e.g. the Palm Pre).
So...since we don't have an N900 here yet to test, I can't be sure that it doesn't do multiple calendars. I'd be happy to work with someone out there who has a) a device and b) some spare time, to test it to be sure. Some Google searching suggests that the developers of the MfE client for Maemo may not have understood how to implement multiple calendar support, and hence the current version of the client doesn't support it (but a future one might).
