Google is offering paid plans for more sotrage for it's services

I ran through this while i was checking feedburner

how nice, If they offered an easy way to upload files to this storage I would gladly get rid of my .mac account...

 

I think 2Gb for Gmail are too much already - I didn't cross 100MB since i always clean it

 

yahoo gives away unlimited email space now.

But seriously $20 a year is good.

But look at the 250GB one.. $45 a month? Hmm..

Checking at 1and1.com for hosting, which gets me a custom domain name, host anything, including any type of "file"...

For 250GB.. $10 a month, $120... doesnt $500 seem a little expensive?

Whats in it?

 

i thought there was some more special offer for upgrade. I just created 2 gmail accounts for my documents and they were more than enough.

 

I came across the same situation,i am willing to go with a fast mail server rather than a big but slow mail server.

 

Google offer is much too expensive.

 

2.8 GB enough for me and don't use Picasa. But service's fees are a little expensive.

 

1and1 it's a joke.
about G, they don't support IMAP.

 

fair enough, but it was just an example.

You can buy a dedicated at $50 a month, which has 600GB of hdd, 1TB of bandwidth and its a server you can do whatever you want with... It was just to highlight the fact Googles Offer is far too expensive for what it is.

i really wonder that there are people who can use 2.8GB gmail storage

i'm only using 100 mb of it

 

Is Gmail now out of BETA?

 

no, not yet and i'm not sure what else better can they offer to announce it as final v1.0
