    That wouldn't be proper push as GMail only polls POP accounts periodically. If it's work e-mail it's probably Exchange so the better way to get push mail is to setup a server-side rule to forward a copy of the e-mail to your gmail account :)

    So far I've been happy with the email integration. What I particularly like is the way messages are presented to me. IMs, SMS, and email are treated the same via the notifications bar. Maybe someday I can tell my customers to ditch SMS for IM :), Plus the contact syncing is wonderful, and you pay for a MobileMe service.

    One feature lacking is multiple email accounts. On the desktop client, I can specify the address when sending an email. You can't do that on the client today, but I'm hoping they add it.
