Ooh, this is a clever idea. If you use Google Mail you might be impressed by all that lovely storage space (6.5 GB at last count!) but somewhat stuck about what to use it all for.
Well, it’s not likely to make too big a dent, but if you own a S60 3rd Edition mobile and have £9.95 burning a hole in your paypal account you could always spend it on GSync – a new product from Psiloc that lets you archive you SMS and MMS messages to your Google Mail inbox.
The app could barely be simpler to use – it just sits in the background and sends SMS/MMS messages to Google Mail at a specified schedule. Messages appear as emails (obvious, really) and the system makes full use of Google Mail’s ability to group together messages by the same person.
The software can only sync up to 200 messages per day – this appears to be a limit set by Google rather than Psiloc - any extra message are simply queued until the following day, and then uploaded.
But seriously, who gets more than 200 texts a day?
