Finally, well almost

Gmail is finally rolling out IMAP!

Google Blog

This is a must have, especially with all the emailing I do from the iPhone now! You get an email in Mail and reply and it doesn't sync with the iPhone, and then later you check the web and have all new mails, and it's a mess to try and keep up with. Which is why, if you ever get an email days later, that I thought I had already replied to, but didn't you'll know why.



They have this service with other companies that runs about $10 a month and adding another $10 a month fee to the ever growing long list of $10 a month fees is like beating your head against the wall, not very fun. So of course with Google, it's free! Just like my Blog, just like my email (ok the MX Record part of it). I have to pay for the domains, but every site I have is using the Google Apps for free to handle my Phone, Calendar, Email, Docs, Spreadsheets, etc.... Why? Because I want access no matter where I am!

Now for the almost part, mine isn't showing up yet but it's supposed to be coming!

iPhone has been announced!

I have been looking at the BlackJack phone ever since it came out and debating on whether I should spend the money on one. The reason I have been going back and forth is because there have been rumors over an Apple phone as well as some patents out there for a touch screen iPod with phone capability. Well, I knew MacWorld was this week and it finally got announced that they are coming out with the iPhone!

This is by far the coolest phone out, and I will not be buying a BlackJack now. I will start saving though, no telling how much this iPhone will cost. It is a phone with email, google maps, Safari, Widgets, the works! It has a built in iPod to store all your movies and music and by far the coolest feature is the way it tilts and rotates what you are looking at on the screen. For example, an image shot vertically you can look at long ways, then say the next picture is horizontal, you turn the iPhone and the picture rotates to show you a full screen version.

Go take a look, they aren't expected until June so start saving and get the coolest phone that will be out with Mac OS running it!
