Google has finally decided to stop ignoring Windows Phone on two key issues: Multiple Calendar Sync & Search (Previously, Windows Phone users had to resort to workarounds to achieve syncing multiple calendars to their device). Today, Google posted, via Google+, that they have fixed these two problematic issues for Windows Phone users:

We launched a few new features on Google Sync for our Windows Phone (7.5+) users. Multiple Calendars is a feature that lets you select which of your Google Calendars are synced to your device. Just navigate to m.google.com/sync on your phone’s browser and configure the calendars you would like to see. From that page, you can also configure which addresses you send mail as if you have custom addresses in Gmail. We’ve also improved search to look beyond the conversations that are stored locally on your device so that you are able to find more of your conversations, faster.

Google also addressed the ability to choose which address you send as if you have custom Gmail email addresses using m.google.com/sync and the ability to search server-side email. Maybe they are warming up to Microsoft’s underdog OS, probably not.
