yes, I had a similar experience with the iPhone. Setting gmail up as an IMAP solved the problem.

I just deleted an email from my BB gmail. I refreshed gmail on my computer a minute later and it showed that it had been deleted.
ION, has anyone had the following itune/ipod problem? (Probably.) I downloaded a zipped file of mp3 podcasts to my desktop. I uncompressed the files and added the folder to my library on itunes. The podcasts showed up in my library. I synced my ipod. Played one of the podcasts. Synced my ipod again-- the mp3s disappeared from itunes and ipod. I added the folder again, rinse, repeat. It disappeared again! What am I doing wrong? I have it set to copy songs to itunes when I add folders, so it should be in itunes!

What I want is going the other way -- I want to delete an email from gmail on my computer, and have it disappear from my BB.

Same result when I just tried it. I don't see why it wouldn't be the case. Your email is sitting on gmail's servers. Maybe the blackberry cached the inbox for a time, but when it refreshes, it should be checking in with gmail.
Just tried setting up the BlackBerry to access gmail through IMAP, following the instructions on the gmail site, and now it's not getting the messages at all. I'm gonna try just starting over.

Looks like you've got it set up as IMAP. As Vortex said, if it's set up as POP, I don't think it works the same way
OK, I set it up as IMAP, following the instructions on the gmail site. Waited a few minutes, and the BB recognized it and got the most recent test email I'd sent to the gmail address. I deleted the email from gmail on the computer, and now I've waited about 15 minutes, and it's still on the BB.
May be a stupid question, but have you refreshed it?
Not a stupid question, since I just got it a few hours ago and am still figuring out how it works. How do you make it refresh?
On mine it's a menu option when you're in the inbox.
