Funny how Google has 'announced' their 1 gig email but it's not available. Everyone (Yahoo, MSN, SpyMac) seems to be tripping over themselves to offer supersized mail boxes. I wonder if it's just a ploy for Google to get their competitors to spend money needlessly.<br><br>[color:blue]All your sock puppets are belong to us</font color=blue>

I've been wondering the same thing. I do realize they are new to the scene, but how many months of beta testing does it take to get an email service running?<br><br><br><br><br>----<br> <br><br>Homeland Security Advisory

Gmail needs to come out before school starts, otherwise people are just going to forget about it. <br><br>

I think they said a little while ago that they would take it out of invite only beta mode "sometime before the end of the year".<br><br>Ryan<br><br>11-02-04 end of an error
