GPush brings Gmail notifications to the iPhone
There's no official support for Gmail push notifications on the iPhone, but you can add them for 99 cents, thanks to an app called GPush. GPush only does one thing: it notifies you when you have new Gmail messages. The only setup required is entering your Gmail login and deciding which notifications you want. You can pick a combination of pop-ups, sounds, and a badge on the app icon.GPush handles its one feature the right way, using SSL for secure login. You don't have to open the app to read your new mail, either. You can just check Apple Mail or the Gmail web interface as usual, but GPush means you'll avoid checking them when you don't have new mail.

It doesn't really work well for most people yet. There's been lots of reports of people not getting push notifications, and it won't work at all for you if you have any special characters in your password. It would be a good idea to hold off until they release an update that addresses these issues, which they say they're working on. As of right now, I paid a dollar for nothing.

Great, sadly this does not support Google Voice. If you are looking to enable push notifications support for Google Voice, read http://truvoipbuzz.com/2009/07/enable-google-voice-push-notifications-on-iphone-3gs-tutorial/
