How do I sync my google contacts and calendar into my iPhone 4? I set up google sync in iTunes, but it doesn't let me specify certain groups of contacts, just does them all. I've been told to a) do it in itunes, b) do it with a gmail account on phone and c) setup an exchange account.

I went the exchange account way, and have contacts in google I don't want on phone (ie they have no label in google). As for calendars, I have 2, and my wife shares one with me. The only one I see on my phone is my personal one. My work and one shared with me don't show up. Any ideas?

i think this is it as far as labels

you can set up multiple exchange accounts for different calendars

The iPhone does everything for you. Dont try to actually work it cuz thats wrong.
:p

No seriously, on your phone just add the gmail account in the Email app. I forgot where but theres a button to set so it will also pull calender and contact data as well as mails.
