Shared Google Calendars on iPhone/iPod Touch

From

but here to be accessible and in case it goes away.

"Google Sync allows you to choose up to 25 Calendars with the Calendar app on your Apple device.

To select which calendars to sync to your Apple device, follow the steps below:

1.Open the Safari browser on your device and go to http://m.google.com/sync.
2.Sign in with your account and select your device from the list of devices that you've set up for Google Sync."

Amazingly it "just works".

I remember with other devices a curious "private URL" was used. Perhaps this works from the MAC address of the iOS device.

Very clever !
