The newly released Palm Pre can sync with a Gmail account. If you can make a little alteration, then your Pre can start working like a real Gmail client.
How to do?
- Open the Mail application and go into Preferences and Accounts.
- Under accounts, tap your Gmail account
- Under Default Folders, change the trash folder to [Gmail]/All Mail
So for some of the folks new to Palm Pre, a brief description:
Palm Pre is a multimedia smartphone designed and marketed by Palm, Inc with a multi-touch screen and a sliding keyboard.
The phone came out on June 6, 2009 and uses Palm’s new Linux based operating system, webOS.

I love reading this blog. I came across it searching Google one day and decided to bookmark it. Keep up the great work!

I’ve had my Pre given that shortly immediately after launch and am glad to find (by means of this forum) that I can now set a ring tone on incoming text messages and can research via e-mails and such. Now is there any hope for an upcoming release where I can lookup my calendar? Would make my work a lot simpler, discovering dates of final appointments. No other complaints, except that yesterday I was in and out of Sprint provider (not unusual). I feel I used to be roaming, and looked at my calendar. Almost everything from the calendar was just one hour earlier than what I had input. The clock was a single hour early as properly. I had been scared to death–then, as soon as we got back into Sprint provider again, every thing was normalized. Has this happened to any individual else?? Looking forward to answers, but please bear in mind, I’m no techie and speak English as opposed to technospeak.
