Syncing my iPhone with work (Microsoft Exchange) is great, but I still wanted a to view personal calendar from Google Calendar to be synced to my iPhone too.  And yes, I know you can use ActiveSync to sync Calendar on the iphone.  This can be done by adding the CalDev calendar sync!

First, click the settings button on the home screen, select Mail, Contacts, Calendars:

Select Add Account, then Other,

Now select Add CalDev Account:

Enter the following information:

• Server:  www.google.com
• User Name:  Your Google account email address (can be your Google Apps email address)
• Password:  Ummm… your Google account password…
• Description:  Google Calendar (or whatever you want to put here)

Tap the Next button in the top right, and that’s it!  I did a quick test, and added an items from both Exchange and Google Calendar, and within 1-2 minutes, it was on synced to my iPhone!
