Google Gmail. Anyone got it yet?

[dick dastardly]

Just wondering whether anyone on here has a Gmail acount yet?

I applied for one in early April and even though ready-to-use Gmail accounts are for sale on eBay I haven't heard anything back from them

Gmail? is that like Email?

I think it's still in the beta testing phase. I'm guessing the accounts for sale on email are from people who are beta testers?

Google's email service. Generated comical amounts of numptyism from various privacy groups.

Why bother, when you can already get a 1gb email account for free.

Why bother when you can buy your own domain for next to anff all and escape all the spam.

Me got an account!

and its quite good. Its really nice not worrying about the space. Although it groups your conversations in a funny way but I'm getting used to it.

To get an account you need an invite, beta testers get a number of invites to pass on to friends etc. If you really want one I've heard that some are up for sale on E-Bay.

I've just got my grubby mits on an account as well. All seems very intuitive so far, if not as flexible as runbox that I usually use...

Stuuu: Is it true that after one week you receive invite's to send out, letting others in on the beta level?
