I half way figured this out today. It appears Android sets exchange to check mail every 15 minutes instead of push by default.

I thought that is why but my biggest complaint is the lack of a "newer" button without hitting menu. They designed the "newer" button into the main mail design, why didn't they do the same in the gmail app?

I am seeing the same behavior. The phone lag is what is annoying me the most.

Ill play with the G-Sensor to see if that helps. I would have thought this would have been configured out of the box.

I agree, I just wish they allowed a little more custimization with it. IE: Screen off after 30 seconds, phone locks after 1 minute.
