Unfortunatelly gmail does not push to the iPhone. You can have it check in intervals. 15 minutes, 30 and hourly. Go to settings, Fetch new data, and you will see the time intervals there.
Maybe Google will make their own GMail application. That way they could utilize the push notification feature from Apple to instantly alert you of new e-mails.

Or they could get Apple to implement IDLE support in their mail client, which would instantly give every iPhone user push e-mail using pretty much any modern IMAP server...
Nah, you're right -- it's an Apple technology -- they'll probably make their own App Store app.
