I have a very narrow data point. I have a Samsung Moment, which runs Android 
1.5 ("Cupcake") and includes (free, part of the Sprint load) the Moxier Mail 
ActiveSync client. Setting it up with a CGP 5.2.18 server went without a 
hitch and it has been working well, although I do not make it work very 
hard. I have had an event invitation echo once, apparently an artifact of a 
sync loop between the phone, CGP, and iCal. I have yet to fully analyze what 
causes those incidents (also seen by iPhone users) but the published AirSync 
fixes in 5.3.x seem to address that area.
