I assume it's an actual app. I installed it from the app store.
Are there apps in the app store that are actually links to web pages?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You can have it push mail, check manually every certain amount of time (15, 30 min) or only when you open the app.
I thought gmail didn't have an official app yet? Or something like they put it out and then took it back because it was buggy? Or something?

The current version has 3 1/2 stars. Previous version only had 3 stars.

Good to know. Though I don't really use my gmail a ton (mostly just when I'm job hunting or need to look way more professional than my yahoo address. :)
And rebooting my phone seemed to do the trick. SO WEIRD.

It took a bit of getting used to but I like the iPhone gmail app. I use it about 80% of the time to answer mail.

I used the gMail app briefly a couple of months ago, but decided the built in mail app was better. Unfortunately, I can't remember why. So, this wasn't a particularly useful post, was it?

I was going to say something, but I forgot what it was.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Great story, Jon!

Anybody used to working with PDFs that you make into forms people can fill in? We have one and there's a limit on the number of words (or there's supposed to be). We tried averaging the number of characters per word and using that, with an increase to try to get it to work. People complained they still couldn't get all their information in, we increased it again, and it STILL doesn't work.
Admittedly, I haven't done this much and most of the time it's things like registration forms, where you have text that's limited and a bunch of checkboxes.
Anyone have any guidance as to how to make the @#$# form work? I think we're also having problems that people are doing extensive formatting and trying to make it "look pretty".

Jon, it might've been the thing I was vaguely remembering, where it was buggy and they took it down and brought it back.
