Virgin/Google mail   
I've just had an email from Virgin announcing the change to their new
email service.  I had heard about it here, but had no notification
till now.
Are they changing everyone at the same time?  Has anyone already
changed?  I was relieved to see that my virgin.net address will not
change.
Comments?

Well thing that struck me was the description that "Virgin Media Mail is 
a shiny new upgrade"! Don't want shiny new - want reliable and quick. 
The reality of course is thathaving failed to run a dependable email 
service they are passing the buck to Google who will run it for them, 
hardly a situation to make a big deal of.

As I read it you will get another email notifying you when the change 
has taken place.

Personally I don't care much as I'm contemplating a move to another ISP 
the service has been so rubbish lately.
