Get the New GMail 2.0!

---

This post is for UK (and other non-US) users of Gmail.

I knew GMail 2.0 existed, but I could not enable it. Initially I thought it was my laptop’s problem so I went off trying to upgrade my browser change the Language settings to “English” and none worked

It had passed me by a few months ago until someone accessed his GMail from my Laptop — and there it was — version 2.0.

Why it’s like so:

The problem is that outside US no-one has it! Our US friends got an upgrade but we didn’t. (Not suprising).

Anyway, last week I discovered that we can enjoy the delights of Gmail 2.0 too!

Ubuntu 8.04 code-named Hardy Heron Alpha 4 was released February 02 and is officially available for testing.

At this stage it is still considered as unstable so smooth running is virtually impossible.

The release is scheduled late April this year and it is expected to be supported for 3 years and 5 years, for desktop & server respectively.
