the mail client doesn't do the gmail labels properly

I would want to read offline, although I'm connected most of the time. When I had my iPhone, the best you could do was to use the web interface. It's good that it has changed now though. I had a link to the web app, but had to use the iphone default app to show the new mail "badge" which I liked, and then click the other link to read my mail properly on the web.. The web app is also connection specific. Ended up replacing it with the Desire, due to lack of flexibility
