Gmail, Maps, Not connected

OMG...I'm having the same problem.  Are you getting a Force Close message that reads:  "The process com.google.process.gapps has stopped unexpectedly.  Please try again." each time you try to go into gmail?

Someone...please help us!!!!

So, I've been googling this problem, and apparently, there have been a lot of people with android phones having the same issues.  I'm still not 100% fixed, but some of the suggestions have helped me receive messages in my inbox and sync manually without issues. Just not sure that auto-sync is truly working.

Here's what I've tried:

On my desktop pc, in my gmail account, I created a temp folder and moved a good portion of my old emails from my inbox to the temp folder.  (some people believe that the problem is with the google server...somehow, there may be a specific date that is causing the problem.)
Deleted all of the data under gmail, gmail storage, and contact storage by going into settings/applications/manage applications. (before deleting any data under contact storage...made sure that I've backed up all contacts first...just in case.)
Went into settings/accounts & sync and re-sync'd my gmail account.
Deleted my Facebook account and re-added it
Sync'd all accounts again and my contacts were all back to normal.

If I go into all messages in my gmail app, I still get the force close issue, but at least it's no longer doing it every time I go into my inbox.

Any other suggestions?
