I've have new new Ocean for a few weeks now. Ok, really...Probably one of the best movesI've ever made [in regards to wireless] was to buy the new Ocean and sign up with Helio. I've been more that impressed with customer service and the device itself is freaking sweet...

However, just a question I was hoping other Ocean users could help me with...I've got my email all set up. I use gmail and have enabled POP's and everything. I can manually check my email buy using "send/res eave" however, I was wondering if there was a way to have the phone atomatically "alert" me when I have a new email?

Anybody know this? Please repost if u do...

I think what you want is a push email. POP can be check on intervals setting only, so it will only grab an email when you check on the server. So i dont think there is any push email alike on it yet.

yeah what Ewdison said

"Yea, what Ewdison said"? haha
Just thought that was funny.

Hmmmm, spanks...just curious...There is no way of changing that, correct?

In most cases it isn't until the provider is able to come up with an application to fit a need like that. You can possibly contact them and see what they say. But I'm not a Helio customer so I wouldn't know but just stating the norm.

Not many push email in the market aside from Exchange (Activesync), BlackBerry, and Good (motorola now)

Makes sense...Still love the Helio Ocean, just thought having a "push" email set up would make the phone even more functional.

Yea. I'm sure it will be something of the future.

That would be awesome... just like the blackberries! Then you dont have to check it.
