Compared to Yahoo! or Hotmail, Google does less advertising. Gmail almost looks ad-free. Anyway, I had a problem with the previous Gmail Mobile. It somehow cannot upload messages from the device. Hope they fixed it. Symbian is ****. Very unreliable. That may be the reason. Isnt it ?
They have done a great job redesigning the Gmail interface for phones. Very usable and it even emulates the conversation view well.
The line at the bottom you mentioned doesn’t really count as an ad. Many mobile blogging and email applications insert such self-advertising text in posts and email respectively. It isn’t as bad as Yahoo mail putting random ads INSIDE the email.
Sreejith: True, Symbian has always been buggy. Unfortunately, it is one of the widely accepted mobile platform with hell lot of third party applications.
Marc: Where do you live? Here in India, GRPS is pretty cheap. You just have to pay just half a dollar for a whole day.
With talks about Gphones all around,it is no wonder google is focussing on mobile versions of its sites….news doing rounds currently is Google Ready to Ship 50,000 G-Phones for Developers to Test
i like gmail app for mobile i have been using it for many months but the only problem is it doesn’t load images embedded or attached in mail.
You can only read text, yeah its a mobile version i know but there should be some option to enable or disable it. But no option at all for viewing images in gmail.

I tried it just today and found it excellent.

Well, in mine, I can’t even send mail through it. It returns error. And, if I use it for sometime, the set gets overheated.
But today, I came to know that my cellphone had one of the exploding defective batteries !!!!!!!!
Man, Glad I didn’t blow up. Sigh …. ;(
