Thank you for all the Gmail-related responses.
I did notice that Google was "advertising" that I can access my Gmail account via IMAP or somesuch. I'm sure that will work well, and will be the lowest-overhead way to view any (new?) emails coming into that account. The thing is, I'm a bit of a Gmail fanboy. I really like the web interface, with the tagging and sorting, and the super fast searching of my years of accumulated mail (receipts, tracking numbers, photos, etc.). You know, Gmail!
Unless I'm misunderstanding, viewing my mail in a "normal" email app won't really give me all that. Now, I can totally view my Gmail page in Opera. I've already favorite-ed it, and it works pretty well. (The Diamond display is
amazing. I wish my
eyes were better.) But, I figured that a dedicated Gmail app might be a bit better, in the same way that the dedicated Google Maps app is a bit better than the browser-based page.
Which brings me back on topic. Yay! Juicy includes Google Maps in his ROM. Did he have to do some sort of black magic to make it work? If I went to Google's site and tried to download the Windows Mobile version of Google Maps, would I hit the same issues I hit with Gmail? (Those crazy .jad files?)
Just curious.
Is this Google's way of migrating us Windows users to Android?
