Not noticing too much of a difference so far but the IMAP feature is amazing! The contact manager is interesting but it seems sluggish. Had it for about 2 weeks or so.

POP support is a joke, why don't they fix that before trying something else? It's great that they're pushing it forward and all but it'd be nice if they fixed the pre-existing problems first.

Contact management looks nicer but overall not seeing much difference. A couple notes. 1. It doesn't like that I am using Firebug extension with firefox and tells me that with instructions on how to fix .. basically turn it off. 2. It seems slower to me. My home connection while supposedly broadband often feels slower than I like on certain sites. I can tell a difference between old and new gmail. any other thoughts? I have it on 1 of my 2 accounts.
