During the setup Wizard you're asked whether you want to setup an existing or new Google account. This would potentially sync your contacts, email, and everything assuming you have these checked under Settings details for any given Google account (you can have more than one setup).
If you skip this step during the Wizard, you add any Google account anytime just by going to Settings, the Accounts and Sync, then choose Google. All the syncing details are there.
