I love my iPhone. It’s a great communications device. It’s got texting, Facebook, Twitter, email, and more. The only problem with it is the email doesn’t have push notifications. So if you want to check if you have new messages, you have to go to the Mail app. It doesn’t tell you if you have a new email, like Facebook or texting does.

GMail has a way around this. It’s not the perfect solution, but it works. I would really like to see Apple support push notifications from email right out of the box.
