Potential Android newb questions
Looking for a few quick answers from some Android experts. I am a longtime WM user with a failing HTC Titan/Mogul on Sprint. I am considering the jump to Anroid if I can setup the following options through the OS. Maybe you can quickly tell me if this is possible. Does Android:
  • Support full Gmail access? (so I can dump all my POP3 accounts into one for better mobile access)
  • Support full Google Docs & Apps access? (so I can move my documents and calendar online with mobile access, elminating a sync to a PC)
  • Have a document editor suite or Apps tie-in (to have a mobile desktop)
  • Have a LogMeIn app or support through the browser (for client remote desktop control)
I'm working between 3 different office locations and would like to move everything online going forward to simplfy access and workflow. I can do most of these thing with WM in some way or another but like the idea of having everything online and tied straight to my device. PPCGeeks have been a great resource to this lurker for some time. Thanks for the help.

Yes, via the Google Mail app (preinstalled) or via web browser.

Re: Potential Android newb questions
Thanks, I was seeing mixed answers with some other forums, mostly dated respoinses though. Thanks again
