Moot point anyway: I use Gmail, and nearly always web apps for everything. The arguments against ChromeOS (and cloud computing in general) always pass me by because I live my entire life in a web browser for everything except music.<br>

I think what I said was a little unclear, not sure, but the outlook integration with HTCs outlook app is almost flawless. The only single strange thing it does is when I accept a meeting request on the calendar/outlook thing its auto reply says en**** (my username!) has accepted, rather than my name. Not really too much of an issue and I'm sure it's fixable, but I'm lazy.<br>
<br>If you get an HTC release it will have the same (or better) outlook apps as the hero - whatever version of android it runs.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Dec 8, 2009 at 1:59 PM, Mike Cardwell <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:nlug@lists.grepular.com" target="_blank">nlug@lists.grepular.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>I have a G1. I'm not sure why you're making that claim re Outlook<br>
integration. Android hasn't shown any promise as a usable mobile email<br>
client yet. The worse thing about Android is the email application. It's<br>
absolutely terrible. Extremely slow, clunky and severely lacking in<br>
anything other than the basic feature set. Mobile Outlook is far<br>
superior, as is the email client which came with my Symbian based Nokia<br>
E90, and the iPhone mail client too. I've had to install a third party<br>
client called K-9. It's not brilliant, but it's far superior to the<br>
standard mail client that comes with Android.<br>
<br>
Other than that, everything else about the phone is superb.<br>
