GPush - Push Gmail to iPhone

One of the battles against the iPhone has long been a lack of push email, a
feature that is crucial for many business customers who live in their
inboxes. It is one of the great benefits that BlackBerry has the iPhone,
especially for business users, and although the iPhone 3.0 software update
added support for push notifications, Apple does not update the phone's
built-in e-mail program to push.

A new 99-cent application from Tiverias Apps called GPush (iTunes link)
aims to change that. Call GPush simple would be an understatement - this
app is literally a one-track mind. All it does is give the press notices of
new mail in Gmail. It does not open emails or send emails, it just lets you
know when the new arrival as soon as they arrive, and whatever you do.
