iwuvcookies 0 Report post Posted January 19, 2006 At first i thought the title suggested that you can call some number provided by gmail to access along with a password and have some Gmail appointed speaker read the email to you. lol. I was wrong obviously. lol. Hopefully Google can look into that if you are indexing pages sometime. lol.ON the actual topic. ITs cool you can register by phone now. Some people are abusing google gmail and they just might ruin it for others. I don't want it to shut down because people are puttings too many files for storage.

Kioku 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2006 Alot of gmail invites, if anyone needs any. Just PM me and I'll invite you. Last I checked, both of my accounts had ~100 or so. It's not like I ever even use them at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
psychiccyberfreak 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2006 I saw this, and unfortunatly they don't support verizon yet. It would be nice if I could experience it. Oh well. It's just a way of making me spend money... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EJay 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2006 That might not be the most securte way to access gmail since cellphone (WAP) is accessable all over the world with the right tools, and thus causing security loopholes that people can jump through. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ameribass 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2006 Yeah, I heard about this earlier. It's not a bad idea for google. I've had an account with them for a while now, so this new feature doesn't really pertain to me, but to those who don't know anyone that will be willing to send them an invite should be happy that they can finally just sign up themselves, at least for those living in the countries mentioned above. Thanks a lot for the information and see you around in the forums in the near future! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
