Google has released a free Java application that will enable users of its Gmail web-based email service to receive and send messages from mobile devices.The application is currently compatible with “all J2ME-enabled phones in the US and works with a variety of carrier service plans,” Google says, but has given no information on its use elsewhere. Google promises that it delivers “the look and feel of Gmail through a fast, feature-rich interface that’s optimised for handheld devices.”

    You have to wonder when will google be so big that they are untrustworthy? Or have they got to that point already?

    Lmao!Adsense on the toilet paper roll.
    According to an ex CIA agent,google is kind of hanging out with CIA and some other US org.
    Their search engine gives the gold mine of information.Many would like to put their hands on that mine.

    Yes they make good app, yes it looks great, yes its fast and likable, but only one thing missing for my taste, and that is viewing other accounts like Hotmail, Yahoo mail and others… I found a program (Movamail http://movamail.com/) that supports POP, IMAP and Webmail for many accounts and it’s not so bad. Anyone tried it?
