Thanks Kenneth - That sounds like a good solution. I don't think I'd have any trouble remembering when I'm using the phone vs when I'm using a regular computer. Occasionally I'll be using the phone to reply to a message which comes in on my regular gmail address (as opposed to the phone address) but that shouldn't be a big problem. -
