Check your mail from your cellphone via http://m.gmail.com

...the mobile e-mail service, which currently is only available to U.S. cellphone users...

tried it anyway, but didn't work for me
i'm assuming this is a wap page?

 

[arf9999]

yeah, I couldn't get it to work either... maybe some setting required, checking for cell number?

However, you can use this:
http://gmobile.sayni.net

It isn't official, but it works.

No, it is not a WAP page. It is returning HTML content...

GET <http://m.gmail.com/> (text/html, charset='ISO-8859-1') 230 301 
GET <http://mail.google.com/mail/x/> (text/html, charset='ISO-8859-1') 0 302

What phone using which browser?

I just tried on my P900 using Opera 6.3, but I got an XML parser error... looking for an update of the browser now...

It works fine on a D600.

 

[nGAGEd55]

What phone using which browser?

Nokia N-Gage, with NetFront

Nokia N-Gage, with NetFront

Just tested with the P900's standard built-in browser and it works fantastic!

Details on the mobile e-mail service, which currently is only available to US cellphone users at http://m.gmail.com.

Thats not an accurate statement as I've just accessed it from SA via vodacom. Perhaps they meant to say only affordable to US cellphone users as often services like this, and IM chat services will get bundled with standard data packages.

Posted already.

Worked fine for me on my blackberry and on the native motorola v.3 browser but not opera mini.

Anyone got it working on opera mobile, or can anyone recomend an app for series 40 phones that will work with gmail mobile??

 

[Sig_ZA]

Gmail Mobile

Has anyone got this to work yet?
http://www.google.com/glm/gmail
Also, all the help links on the left side of the page are dead.

And, most gmail's Holiday Goodies http://mail.google.com/mail/help/intl/en/about_whatsnew.html don't seem to work either.

You need to be in the US with a US cell phone

Pity, I was hoping it would be a normal WAP/WML/HTML thing.
