    I wonder if this is related to what country you are logging on from? I have only heard of a few people having any trouble with GMail. Both we from Australia. I doubt it is related, but I am curious.

    Personally, I have never had any trouble at all. I have not run into a single bug the entire time I have been testing it.

    There were logging in issues for a few hours yesterday, for new accounts only. But eventually they kicked in.

    I would think Gmail would go live soon. Wired did an article on how invites re no longer in short supply. I mirrored the article here

    What is a Gmail 502 Server Error anyways? Anyone know? It happens to come up A LOT for me which leads me to believe this is no where near the end of the beta.

    502 is a proxy error. Which means probably the front-end machine(s) that proxy the requests to the backend machines had a problem.

    check out ... GMail Swap for people begging for an account. hehe.

    GMail invites for sale on eBay ... http://search.ebay.com/gmail

    I got invites as well ... I sent out my first three sparingly, but as soon as those were gone I had 4 more, then those were gone and 6 more invites showed up. So I am guessing everyone will get an account sooner than later.
    Just be patient. :)

    I do like GMail a lot. It's the best web based mail I've used.
    Very clean, easy to use, lots of space, (10MB attachment limit though), searchable, and well organized.

    I don't mind the text scanning for relevent ads either. :p

    Thumbs up to Gmail Swap.. I got an account there in about 10 minutes. What did I offer? a link from a PR5 for 1 month :D

    It's fairly amusing to read for a while too.

    Wait, Adwords users can sign up for Gmail? I use Adwords and I didn't know this. Is this true?

    They sent most adwords users an invite. If you ring adwords, they'll tell you though, they can't send you one because it's not the same department as GMail.
