    I think they have stopped working on Gmail...They have not introduced any new features (design) except increasing the space to 6 GB...

    Rightly said! As long as it is beta, you will be content with what is available and won't complain anymore :D

    Beta or not, its still one of the best free e-mail providers! At least anyone can sign up now, compared to before when it was an invite-only provider..

    They're still working on it, they've since introduced Gmail Labs... http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/

    They did some work late. I notice a new loading bar after I sign in. I'm not a gmail fan but I use it from time to time.

    Well, Gmail has not improved on its loading time....yet. I thought they said it was faster? Not to me.

    It did, but I think it's only because I upgraded to Firefox 3.

    In all faq, google has one of the biggest companies around the world, let alone a lot of programmers. Beta should be thrown out the window by now.

    Google sure is making more improvements to it...
    On a second thought it could be just used as a excuse to the press if they plan to close it down without any notice :p :D

    It will remain a beta until they have more users than hotmail! That is when it will no longer be a beta!
    Without doubt gmail is the best! Google talk is a ton times better than MSN!
