A few months ago I purchased the Motorola DROID, and I must say I really like the mobile OS. The Amazon store, Pandora experience Google maps, voice recognition and web browser provide a great experience over my previous windows mobile experiences.
Google however has a real hole in webmail experience. I have had a tough time finding simple functions that I used everyday in hotmail.
Here are the top issues I have experienced so far.
- The ability to sort mail by columns (this is a big one for me)
- I have not figured out how to create rules so messages that come in are put into different views (or folders).
- The DROID mobile client makes me scroll all the way to the bottom of a message to reply or forward the message (gasp)
There are a few other features that I have not listed. The point of this quick post is I am a bit surprised that Gmail is popular, I just don’t see it yet. I have invested in the DROID phone which I for the most part enjoy and I am really trying figure out the Gmail experience.
Wish me luck…
