Never seems to work. Keeps stating that it can't connect. Problem with gMail feed etc, etc.

Quicker just to open the browser.

Finally got it emailed to me by friend and tried to start - widget starts but doesn't allow to even get to settings without first connecting to developer's site.

It is a complete BS as I cannot connect at all to developer's site - times out all the time. Maybe due to location where I am at the moment - but having it work or not work depending on location and ability to connect to developer's site is ridiculous. I'm on the road a lot and have no problems using other gmail checkers, including dashboard and yahoo widgets, even from locations I can't connect to developer's site.

I'm still trying to download it or find alternative download link as the developers site times me out all the time.

But I have the question that is important to me before I decide to use widget anyway:

Description says it launches browser and logs into the account as well that widget supports multiple accounts - so, is it possible in current version (or can it be made possible in future versions) to set different browsers to launch for different accounts?

This thing seems cool, but it keeps trying to grab all my unread emails (there's like 4,000+ - I am lazy about reading everything) and it just takes forever to load. Needs a limiter pref (this week/last 50 emails whatever).

This widget has an elegant, intuitive UI, and does exactly what it claims. Very nice!

Sometimes I get errors when trying to view the widget and it asks to be reloaded with Command + R

I also get the "Please reload" message everytime the computer has rebooted. Very annoying. When I fill in my username + password again, it works perfectly until the next reboot.

Great app, I love it! But I am just wondering, by giving username+pass to it am I going to get spam?

This is why I love widgets!
Useful, works as advertised, nice interface that's customizable.
Nice work.
Right now I can't think of any features to add, it's just a nice, easy solution to the inconvenience of keeping a web browser open all the time.
