I'm ok with Google buying and closing cool services as long as they keep open sourcing them in response to the nerdrage.

Wicked, now I can work on adding some encryption to the datastore. Most things on my Touch aren't very sensitive, but the complete copy of my e-mail archive certainly qualifies and having it just sitting there really scares me.

Another really cool thing users of jailbroken iPhones will have that most will not. Another symptom of how Apple is handicapping themselves by being so closed.(EDIT: Okay, fanbois. Know that I have firsthand experience with both configurations of the iPhone mentioned. I also own other equipment running OS X.)

Thanks Gabor (et al)! This is fun to look through.I'm loling at the BuccheitTimer.

So what's to stop someone from selling this on the app store? Wouldn't that defeat the whole purpose of the buyout?

Looks like the Google Code link found in this blog post is broken. Does it work for anyone else?<a href="http://code.google.com/p/remail-iphone" rel="nofollow">http://code.google.com/p/remail-iphone</a>EDIT: It works now! Before it was giving a 502.

Is anyone working on a reMail "clone" for the ipad? Could be a fun little project.

I don't undersand why google bought them only to open-source it. I get suspicious when companies are nice. Any ideas?

Senor Gabor, Respect.

Glad to see the BuccheitTimer made it :)
