Its integration with exchange (and Google Calendar sync) make it an invaluable tool. Without it, there is no real option for meeting invitations and calendaring.

I also got myself an account at NuevaSync that automagically creates an Exchange server for my Google Calendar that I can push to my iPhone. A few months ago Thunderbird stopped loading correctly because I had too many messages. This lead to a very mediocre three months with Outlook (although Xobni made it somewhat bearable). Turns out that even though Thunderbird was unresponsive I could still compress my inboxes. Two minutes later it's running like new again. See ya Outlook!
