It took a third-party developer to bring push HTML email support to the world’s most popular smartphone OS. We’re not sure how to feel about that but the bottom line is Dataviz has done what no one else could do to this point with the latest version of its widely-acclaimed Roadsync solution.

Seriously, Apple, we’re just as excited as you are about the upcoming laptop refresh but you’re a pretty big company, no? You must have enough employees to handle the MacBook lines and the iPhone at the same time. Has the iPhone development team been pulled away from their work to shovel bricks of aluminum onto [...]

We can’t say this is the most appropriate use for this kind of concept, but Google’s Gmail Labs has just introduced a new Gmail feature that is pretty funny to say the least. Dubbed “Mail Goggles”, the new service allows users to avoid sending late-night emails that they likely would think twice about sending if [...]

Oops. You would think that the group of hackers who recently dug into one of Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin’s email accounts was smart enough to cover its trail.

Readers who own an S60 handset from Nokia may or may not have heard of an application that Nokia has has done a fairly good job of keeping relatively hush. One of the biggest complaints S60 users have in general is the lackluster email client and less-than-reliable performance that comes along with it. There are [...]

Yesterday we gave you a taste of Stevo’s apologetic internal email to his troops regarding the mess that is MobileMe. As you recall, Jobs essentially states that Apple screwed the pooch in rushing the service out when it was most certainly not ready for prime time.

We’re sure you’ve ready about the many, many problems that many, many people are having with the service. You’ve also likely read that people are [...]
