Yes, I use it regularly. 2 things I would like to see: 1) the WebApp (using a Gmail RSS feed) should alert me with a badge as to how many unread or total messages I have in my Inbox (just like the integrated client does). 2) anywhere we create emails in the iPhone should be redirected to the WebApp’s compose screen (with attachements if any).

I like it, but all of a sudden the new web app won’t load. I have to switch to the old which is pretty annoying. iPhones are great, but far our they’re full of bugs.

Use MSGpush.com to get push notification with gmail. It’s in beta now, but it’s free & no complaints so far.

I wouldn’t switch from iPhone Mail app to Web-based until there’s a way to check/notify new emails periodically.

The webapp is pretty good. I like the tab view for extended conversations with people.

All I know is that the add to Home Screen shortcut doesnt have the envelope icon but rather a snapshot of my inbox. Anyone got any ideas?

No, Apple doesn’t allow AppStore Apps to run in the background, but Mail, Phone, iPod and Safari do run in the background, we just need a better way of switching them like Palm Pre provides.

NO WAY! We need a GMail native app… the new web app is nice, but only as an alternative to what came before, and it pales in comparison to what there could be in a native app… PLEASE!!! Web Apps are slow, clunky and cumbersome.
