To reiterate: No problems here! Even speed-wise, I find it very acceptable.

i have same experience w gmail on n800 using the leaked OS2008 firmare. Gmail will load inbox eventually, but that's it. Tryinng to view messages hangs browser with CPU usage between 80 and 100

I had a good experience with both the leaked and beta versions of OS2008 on N800.

Also here, an other positive report for Gmail and GDocs (used daily and for many hours a day)... They work a bit faster and I find MicroB's integrated dictionary very useful.

Maybe you have the infamous 'restore backup problem' or something else could have gone wrong with the browser cache (just guessing) or settings... Have you tried flashing and working without restoring your backup?

I have the latest Gmail (google switched it for me two-three weeks ago) and I use it regularly (because the built-in mail client doesn't work well with Gmail's IMAP) even on very slow connections (GPRS) and I find it's speed acceptable. Let's say usable.
Also in the "Sent" folder, no difference in speed.

I didn't try the HTML version, I'll probably check that, but I am not sure it's faster (as it loads all the page every time , does it?)

What he^ said....

Gmail works very well for me with N800/beta. I restored from N800/leaked and all cookies work fine.
However, as I recall a restore from 2007 to N800/leaked presented some of these issues that were not resolved until I did a clean install.

BTW after testing it every which way on N800/beta I had also set the on board email client to my Gmail account... I just looked down to see my N800's LED flashing and a mail icon in the open apps side bar.
clicking on this brought me to the on board client....
So BONUS with n800 now!

You've configured the POP3 access or the IMAP one ?
