Hello Chris,

Thanks for this post. I am very excited to buy my Treo 650 right after the New Year and have been lurking on Everything Treo and other forum websites. I rely heavily on my gmail account and wanted to make sure I wouldn't have any problems. A few questions arose while I read this post:

- What are the pros and cons of using versamail as opposed to the mobile link that Google just created for gmail?

- will the google mobile link allow for messages to appear as they come to my inbox or is there a delay?

- I keep hearing praises for chattermail and snappermail. What are their advantages over versamail and the google mobile link when it comes to downloading gmail?

- Do versamail, chattermail and snappermail enable me to use the archiving and labeling functions that I have come to rely on in the gmail interface?

- If I use any of these applications, will I still be able to access my gmail account on my computer web browser (i.e., will the messages still be in the google server)?

Thanks in advance for sending the rest of the materials/screenshots you mentioned.

Happy Holidays,

Mark
