Anyway, I have successfully synced my contacts (I don't care for email and calendar btw) to the N900 via Mail for Exchange. If you encounter a timeout while syncing your Gmail account via MFE, quit and on the N900 browser go to any of the following (I created them so I can easily go to them):
tr.im/gunlock
bit.ly/gunlock
I created the 'gunlock' tag/url (which stands for Google Unlock) on most URL shortening sites so try using others if you don't like tr.im or bit.ly.
Btw, this works on any device when you experience the problem connecting to your Gmail (e.g. iPhone, Palm Pre).
Hope this helps.

The good thing is, for the $25 you can sync multiple devices. So I sync both my Samsung Omnia and my Nokia N95. Its great to have everything consistent everywhere :)
