Interesting idea, thanks.
I've got mine currently checking every 15 minutes, which seems to satisfy my urge to know what's coming in.
Anyone else playing with Google's contact and calendar OTA sync? They are both working very nicely for me. I have it synchronizing every 15 minutes during peak and every 2 hours off peak, and it's a pleasure. I cannot say for sure yet how much of a battery drain it is, since lately I've been able to tether to electricity throughout my day and have rarely gone 4 hours without plugging in.
