Default Gmail via push email or directly using pop?

Hello all!

Firstly, I am a complete noob when it come to my q.

Secondly, I just got my q and I have one question. Should I set up my q to receive my gmail via the push mail feature of Wireless Sync or directly using pop3. I have the $25 data plan with Verizon.

What are the advantages/disadvantages of either.

Thanks alot!!!!

welcome to EQ....(cant believe im welcoming a rangers fan...bleh...lol)

anywho...how did you get a $25 data plan from verizon? thats not unlimited is it...the unlimited should be 45 bucks?

anywho...if you want your email in real time you can use wireless sync...but if you dont mind waiting 15 minutes (since thats the fastest the pop can pull email) do the pop email....

Thanks for the nice welcome. Sorry for the loss of Scott Gomez but you know I am loving it though!!!!

I have the $25 10 mg plan for now, I think that would be enough but maybe I will upgrade to the unlimited account in the future.

As for my email account, you are basically saying that there really is no difference aside from the time in which you receive your email.

Is data usage the same?

Thanks again!!!!

well the data usage will be more with the wireless sync...my suggestion would be to use the pop account and have it set up to receive once an hour or only when you hit send/receive since you dont have that much data to work with...i think you will find if you are going to use it for the internet and email that you will sky rocket over the 10mb...
last month i had 90mb of usage...thats light-moderate internet useage and email every 15 min...but thats me...
you just have to be very careful with your plan...if you go over it will cost you a lot in overages....
im not trying to scare you but just be careful
