google contacts beta and sync

[Jerry-O]

In my quest to avoid creating a g-mail account in addition to my regular google account I have been struggleing with a better way to manage my contacts when I came across google contacts beta for non g-mail google acconuts. I made a few contacts and went to my N1 account setting and do not see an option to sync contacts for my google account.

Is this something that has not yet been integrated into android or is there something else I need to do?
