"Last week we released two new features which can save you clicks when using web-based Gmail on an iPhone or Android-powered device. The first one is 'Move', which you can find under 'More' in the Floaty Bar. The 'Move' function lets you label and archive a message in a single step. So as soon as you 'move' a conversation to a certain label, that email will disappear from your Inbox and show up under that label. We introduced this feature to Gmail for your PC earlier this year, and now we're making it available for your mobile phone as well. Another improvement we made is 'Enhanced Refresh.' With this feature, your Gmail inbox auto-refreshes when you switch back to Gmail from another tab or application. And if your phone goes to sleep while Gmail is open, it will refresh when you wake it up. To try out Gmail for mobile, visit gmail.com in your mobile browser. This version of Gmail for mobile supports iPhone/iPod touch OS 2.2.1 or above, as well as all Android-powered devices, and is available in US English only. To make it easy to access your Gmail account, try creating a home screen link."

it's pretty simple... i didn't find that any fumbling was needed
- Chris Heath
I've installed it but can't get it "load my friends." Any ideas on how to solve?
- Jim Turner
I love the new design. It's a lot faster and smoother than the old one...
- Michel
Jim did you get it to load your friends? it was crashing on me right after i tried to load my friends the first time and i deleted it and re-synched and everything was cool

I can't figure out how to access my Group & Fan Pages - pretty important when you're an Admin of a bunch of 'em!

::raises hand:: so if a person has their phone number in FB and then it shows up in 3.0 then you can call them eh. Seems like it. Interesting

I'm pretty sure I could call people's numbers from the Android browser's mobile FB web page...

I'm still trying to figure out the regular interface and now you want me to work this crazy thingy?

The iPhone app is vastly easier than the browser version (which I hate).
- Drew
This is a typical iPhone app. Though it's a third party app for the iPhone.. It inherits lots of feature of iPhone..

I would probably only use it once or twice a week.
- TheHenry
I email pictures probably 6-8 times a month. I'd use MMS 2-3 times a month
- Bwana ☠
I'd much rather have tethering than MMS
- TheHenry
I think I've met one (1) person that actually uses MMS regularly. No, I don't miss it - but I believe T-Mobile over here offers it...
- Holger Eilhard
I used MMS once. The recipient yelled at me, because he was on AT&T.
- The Letter M
Just today someone sent an MMS with picture to my iPhone. You can get the picture, but believe me, it's no fun entering the codes to get it. I'll use it, but probably not much.
- Tom Landini
I use it on Rogers but we get dinged .50c per MMS which sucks
- Simon Tracey
from BuddyFeed
yes, I was on Verizon and thought all carriers had MMS...I find it kind of weird that AT
- James
I would use MMS on my iPhone. As other phone users send me MMS messages I have to jump through hoops - username:password on a site that errors out more than not - to get the content. Very annoying, especially when it's pics/vids of my kids on vacation in Cali without me. Give me MMS!

This just an extension of Microsoft's most profitable business model: feed off other platforms' creativity; do plenty of me-too stuff but in a fashion that'll require later handholding and support (thus creating a third-party service aftermarket); sit by the cash register and listen to endle$$ ka-ching!

'Course they can. Devs own the core code, Microsoft just provides tools to remake the apps into OSX Cocoa Touch-looky likes except with WIndows Mobile graphic primitives etc. Depending on how much time the developer wants to put into it, the remade app, provided it doesn't use any hardware-dependent functions that are not in iPhone, will look and behave almost the same, though not...

I liked this bit especially: "5% (142 votes) thought that it didn’t matter, since they were outside the US and their carriers handled the iPhone with no problem."

Some People are suggesting that Apple is doing it to get ready for Googles Official App. Which is still wrong to do.
- TheHenry
If the internet worked this way there would be like 10 sites on the web. Very short sighted of Apple.
- Todd Hoff
I just purchased the GV Mobile app four hours ago, after hesitating for a few days. Now I'm glad I got it when I did.
- Nolan Alston
I wonder if Apple/AT&T would do the same if fring added Google Voice support along with its gizmo client.
- Rodfather
I really wonder sometimes how it is that Apple is successful? Both these apps were "officially" approved through Apple's review process. Now they turn around months later and pull them? Time for Android.
- Kevin Whalen
re: I bought I own it. Not so fast Amazon removed items from the Kindle that were purchased- what is to stop Apple from doing the same thing?
- Alyx
And I think I blame Apple more than AT&T. They decided to cave.
- Kevin Whalen
None of this stuff will reach the mainstream users of the iPhone. It will still sell like hotcakes because frankly, none of them will know that Apple/AT&T is actively screwing them in this way. These are exactly the kind of shenanigans that I got tired of with my first and only iPod (which prompted me to sell the stupid thing and subsequently swear off Apple). Ugh.

"During yesterday’s conference call announcing their earnings for the recent quarter, Apple went on the record saying that they recognize the need for an App Store overhaul and are currently in the process of gathering ideas for just which parts need the most change."

At that point with the Skype app, it becomes a phone anyway

thought to try a blue-tooth headset with my current Ipod Touch, not sure if it'd work as a mic. don't have a functioning blue-tooth headset right now though...
