Google Launched Gmail for Mobile 2.0

On Thursday Google announced the availability of Gmail for mobile2.0 for J2ME-supported devices such as Nokia N95, Sony Ericsson W910i, as well as BlackBerry phones.

For starters, this second version of Gmail client has a faster and more reliable experience for users. If you have both a Gmail and Google Apps email account, you can easily switch between them quickly without using different applications to personal and work emails. It also supports saving multiple mobile email drafts so that you can pick and choose what you would like to send later.

If you have a QWERTY phone, you can use shortcut keys. Hit ‘z’ to undo, ‘k’ to go to a newer conversation, and ‘j’ to go to an older conversation. And the application has ability to compose and read email even while offline, then send automatically composed messages as soon as it detects a signal.

Also, Gmail for mobile 2.0 is available in over 35 languages now. Please note, though, that not all features are available for all phones. You can go to m.google.com/mail in your mobile browser to download the new Gmail for mobile to your phone.
