It's pretty easy to use Google calendar, email, and contacts in such a way as to instantly sync between your phone and computer. An impressive alternative to the more costly Blackberry exchange services and mobile me membership fees. Read more here.
I should add, that there are some pretty affordable third party software packages out there that sync your standard computer calendars like iCal and Outlook with Google Calendar. Once you've got these systems in place, keeping your personal contacts updated wherever you are is a breeze.

although, it is a neat service, it still lacks security, and it's a pull service not push. they are getting close though!
This is what I use. They do have something like push, if you hook it up like an exchange server. It can do contacts and calendar, but not email. That's fine with me though, since I like the gmail webapp better than the iphone mail app anyways.
