Helio will push your Gmail to you -- or any other mail, for that matter

Owners of Helio devices equipped with the MVNO's "Ultimate Inbox" feature -- Ocean, Fin, Mysto owners, we're looking straight at you -- will find that they now have a fun little gem waiting for them. Gmail's now being touted as supporting push notifications right alongside Yahoo!, Hotmail, AOL, and My Helio, but the real trick here is that Ultimate Inbox now supports push for any POP or IMAP account of your choosing. In other words, that "my bad, I haven't checked my email recently" excuse suddenly holds, like, zero weight if you own one of these devices. Sorry!

I just noticed this today, and I was wondering if they just suddenly activated it or if there was something wrong with my device (its not a phone!!! lol) that just magically started working. Keep up the good work Helio! Now all we need is multitaking or a faster response time when typing...

It's pretty crazy that Google picked Helio for the first cellular phone/device company out of many comapanies to have push gmail on a phone/device. Helio is obviously not "bleeding money" and going down anytime soon... Looking forward to the next device Helio comes out with
