What I particularly like is the way messages are presented to me. IMs, SMS, and email are treated the same via the notifications bar. Maybe someday I can tell my customers to ditch SMS for IM :), Plus the contact syncing is wonderful, and you pay for a MobileMe service. <br><br>One feature lacking is multiple email accounts. On the desktop client, I can specify the address when sending an email. You can't do that on the client today, but I'm hoping they add it. So far I've been happy with the email integration.

If it's work e-mail it's probably Exchange so the better way to get push mail is to setup a server-side rule to forward a copy of the e-mail to your gmail account :) That wouldn't be proper push as GMail only polls POP accounts periodically.
