Gmail Adds A Connection Bar To Show Your Status On iPhones

Gmail on the iPhone, at least through the browser, is really growing into its own. It recently added a “Connection Bar” that shows you if you’re connected, how your message is going through, and the last time you checked for messages, to eliminate any mental question marks.It will make Gmail an even nicer web app for iPhones and iPod touch, once the intentional-or-not web app shortcut slowdown is fixed.
