WebOS 1.3.1 Update Fixes Google “My Contacts” syncing issue

Well folks, my NuevaSync Google Contacts syncing workaround has served me well since the Pre launched on June 6th.  I checked PreCentral.net before I went to bed and found this article

Tonight, Palm released WebOS 1.3.1 to Sprint customers here in the U.S.  Among it’s many fixes read this line:

• If you set up Contacts to synchronize with a Google account, the account synchronizes only entries in Google’s My Contacts, not all contacts.

My Pre is validating the download as we speak.  I’ll report back if there are any problems.

Hopefully the NuevaSync workaround served many of you well (I was getting a few dozen hits a day on that tutorial).  Of course, you can continue to use it if you want and I’ll leave the article up …. but I’ll be removing it from my phone.
