If you read all the posts you will see that he didnt realize that at first, then apologized for the mistake.

What use is this? There is no way I can find to go back to the previous page and it just presents the exact same pages PIE would show. Apparently, it is a web browser limited to Google's web site.

I guess they felt you don't need a goback function. It gives a menu key to the top menu. Then within each category (which mostly takes you to a different website ie CNN) there is no way back to the top of that category other than using the menu. The menu key gives you easy and direct navigation to anything in google mobile tough. I suppose you could do the same thing by saving all the links to your IE favorites but this is much easier than using favorites and it gives direct access to your gmail folders and a lot of other stuff.

Ok, I have over ten screens of messages in my inbox so, after reading screen 8, I select a message to read and then, how do I get back to screen 8 of messages? Go to the top and wait for 7 screens of messages I already looked at.

My point was that it is not as useless as you made it appear. I am not saying that it does not improvements. I am not saying it is good or bad.

If you have that many emails you should be maintaining those on your pc.

It looks good to me. At least you don't have to use that pathetic IE browser for your Google Needs anymore.

In what way is it better than IE? IE provides you with progress feedback and a working "previous page" button. Google2Go does not.
