Well, barely 24 hours ago I was peering through the chained gates of the Wonka Factory GMail service... Google must be expanding the test audience fairly quickly because two of the acquaintances who got in on the last round have already invited me, and now I'm in the exclusive club.
So the next question is, "Now what?" I expect I'll set up my primary personal email address to be an alias that forwards to the gmail account, and set my gmail reply-to address to my primary personal email address, which should enable me to use the gmail interface without having to actually switch email addresses. Should be interesting.
