Opinion and Analysis

Subsequent versions of Precipitate are likely to support multiple Google App accounts. There are also plans to add additional services - Calendar and Blogger sound like particularly promising candidates to me.

While support for Gmail sounds useful, the problem is the large amount of data that potentially need to be duplicated on the Mac. In any case, anyone needing such a facility could already routinely copy their Gmail messages from the server to Mac OS X's Mail or another mail client such as Entourage.
