Sad news on the Google wire today, at least for fans of the next new thing.

I tried it. It was okay with some good ideas but for every nice feature there was something else that just wasn't right.

I do think there is a lot of room for improvement with emails but Wave was just too much all at once. They'd do better evolving Gmail in baby steps over a long time.
