GMail works fine on the phone.
Another possible workaround without using a 3rd party calendar could be to set up an outlook calendar which automatically syncs with the google calendar. Make the outlook calendar your 'phone default'. Any events added to it will sync with google, and vice-versa.
I tried to log onto google calendar and check this, but it's giving me a redirect loop. Typical google nonsense.
