When I don't want the full blown gmail I use:

Fast and secure and you can move into the desktop mode easily too.

Maybe we can find a secure version for the iPhone.

OK, got it. If you use my link above to get in while using the iPhone user agent string it will use the iPhone stuff and stay secure.

See this post

for the user agent.

G-Mail is the last app I use from the home page...

It is the tabs, gadgets, and bookmarks I find useful.

For instance, one tab is for weather and traffic and I stuck 4 of the anycam widgets on it to show the Traffic cams on my commute home (and they refresh every minute), another widget is for Doppler radar, and another is an RSS feed reader that shows live feeds of incidents on all the area hi-ways.

The beauty of the iPhone version is that not only do the widgets work but the interface allows you to expand or minimize each one to minimize page loads.

I have another tab set up called "away" for when I'm a stranger in a strange land. It has widgets for hotel reservations, city guides, flight departures, etc.

All in all, pretty dang useful.

Hell, for security you could set-up another account and use it just for the widgets.
