You are correct here. Android does not have full ActiveSync support, it only scratches at the surface at what MS would call "full ActiveSync support." There are thrid party products out there that will fix this. Be happy that your phone can at least communicate with the servers as some companies block phones that don't have full support.

GMail is a completely separate app from the other email app. Google has much more control over their servers so they have a separate app they can develop in conjunction.

Hmm, mine does. It vibrates when I hold it vertically to let me know it's in non touch mode and removes itself when I hangup or the call ends. Calibrate your G-Sensor: Settings->Sound and Disply->G-Sensor Calibration (at the bottom)

Good question, though I haven't thought of why I would need that, but for some it's a good option.
