Hi,
 today I was setting up a new shared calendar and I thought to write a small tutorial even for my collegues so to make everything as efficient and smooth as possible. Maybe someone else could be interested so I publish on my blog.
    - of course you need a google account (this does not mean that you need to change your address)
 - To setup the sync with your device, follow these few steps:
 
- Open the Settings application on your device's home screen.
 - Open Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Select Add Account...
 - Select Other.
 - Select Add microsoft exchange Account.
 - Enter your account information:
 - - In the Email field, enter you gmail address
 - - In the Server field, enter m.google.com
 - - In the Username field, enter your full Google Account email address.
 - - In the Password field, enter your Google Account password.
 - - In the Description field, enter the name you'd like to appear on the account.
 - - Select Next at the top of your screen.
 - After you've completed setup, open the iPod/iPhone calendar application and syncing will automatically begin.
 - Import the calendar into your gcal account if it's not one your own calendars or ask the creator to invite your gmail accuont.
 - You can now sync all the calendars (well, up to 25 of them) that the single account can see. Simply visit http://m.google.com/sync from your iPod/iPhone to configure which calendars you want to synchronize and that's it.
 
NOTE You can't sync a work account and a personal account, but if you share the work account's calendar with the personal account, it should be fine.
    
you can use http://www.busymac.com/ to sync gcal with your ical if you are a mac user.
