@Rick & @Aisha: The “Synchronize with Google” option hasn’t disappeared; it only appears if you use an iPhone. No explanation why Google didn’t enable this for all Mac users, like their new CalDAV sync for Apple iCal and Google Calendars.

Just a note– I’ve managed to sync my contacts using this method, but annoyingly, anything that was listed in my address book app as a “company” loses its name in the address book on the G1 and is simply listed by telephone number. Curiously, my online Google contacts list all entries as they should be. I’m presuming that the address book on the G1 lacks a company name field? The syncing of contacts is one of two major things I have problems with on the G1 so far (the other being battery life…)
