well, of course, there are drawbacks :)

-	the rest of kdepim (calendar, kontacts..) lacks the integration for 
google services (while kmail works with gmail IMAP)

-	trinity does not have a working integrated browser (trinity konqueror is 
way outdated and modern browsers like chromium, firefox do not integrate
with trinity)

but here are still other benefits:

most of the old kde3 applications, which have been abandoned (without a decent 
replacement) by the kde devs, like quanta, kommander, kedit, kitty  and many 
others, are still alive in trinity and working.
