I would like to use the Calendar app that came with my AirPad 7P, but do not have an email account to sync it with that is Exchange compatible.  Is there a way around this issue - other than acquiring another calendaring app?

[Noam]

I'm no expert on the Airpad, but I'm pretty sure I'm syncing the native Android calendar on my phone (a Droid 2) with my Google Calendar. If the Airpad has the same native calendar, it should be able to sync to Google for you.

I guess I can try it with my GMAIL account and see if that lets me into my Google Calendar.

It should, since both Gmail and the Google Calendar are both tied to your Google account.

Well, this is interesting... I forgot that when I set up my Google Calendar account, I used a Hotmail account as the linked email. On the AirPad side, it's still asking for an account that can be attached to an Exchange server, which I don't have.

When you go into your Google calendar (on a PC), and click the "Gmail" link at the top of the page, what happens?

Well, I figured it out. I needed to connect an email account (in my case, Hotmail) BEFORE adding a calendar event. It would have been so helpful to have some sort of documentation.
