Paul, like you I also have an Android (Google's OS for smartphones) based cell phone. It seems to me that you have confused it a little. When I got the phone (with the number of the local provider, obviously) and fired it up for the first time, I was asked to give my GMail account to initialize the phone or connect it to the cloud or whatever would be the term. Android phones seem to be unable to operate without a GMail account stored somewhere deep inside them. What I am trying to say is that my (local) cell phone number is a part of contract between me and the respective operator. Google is no part of it. Even if I were to take the Google Nexus phone, I would think that the same reasoning would have applied.

Re: He's back.
I'm one of the people who does Android at Google. For those out there who already use some combination of gmail and Google calendar (those is a big number), when you give the phone your login, it goes and automatically sets up your email and calendar and contacts on the phone, and then makes sure they automatically stay in sync. It's really slick and handy, and the gmail program that runs on Android is very smooth snappy. There's also a regular ordinary mail client that will talk to various kinds of mail servers including the ones most people have at work. But if you hate Google and/or have no intention of using any of that stuff, you might be better off with something other than Android -Tim On Thu, Jan 13, 2011 at 4:23 AM, Boris Liberman bori...@gmail.com wrote: Paul, like you I also have an Android (Google's OS for smartphones) based cell phone.

http://google.com/calendar - if you have a gmail account, you get calendar and Google docs (shareable cloud-based docs and presos and spreadsheets) along with it, they're linked at the top left of the gmail page. If you're using your Mac's Address Book calendar, you can sync that stuff both ways to Google, but you have to buy some software. I use Spanning Sync ($25/year or some such) and it works perfectly.

When I tried to set up a Gmail account a couple of months ago the mobile phone issue was the stumbling block, but I just tried it again and was able to set up a new account without problems. I suspect they had a few complaints about the mobile phone validation, especially as they suggested that you use a friend's mobile number if you didn't own a mobile yourself - a good way to lose friends I would have thought Cheers Brian ++ Brian Walters Western Sydney Australia http://lyons-ryan.org/southernlight/ On Wed, Jan 12, 2011 at 9:43 PM, Brian Walters supera1...@fastmail.fm wrote: On Thu, 13 Jan 2011 11:57 +1100, Rob Studdert distudio.p...@gmail.com wrote: On 13 January 2011 11:51, William Robb war...@gmail.com wrote: I am investigating my options and am open to suggestions.
