I think they'd be mad to get rid of Gmail. It's such an established brand.

"Some experts believe it will eventually replace Gmail"
"Engadget questioned whether it would really signal the end of Gmail." Two lines from the linked article.. Hardly says it is going to change.. All industry speculation.. |

At this stage people are speculating about the future, there are as many people suggesting this is an extension of Google Now rather than a replacement for Gmail. |

I got my invite today. It reminds me a little of Google+ and Google Buzz when they first came out. The interface is nice, but there are so many bells and whistles it can be really confusing as to what you can do with it... and what happens to certain messages when you press action buttons or swipe them away.
It look promising, but I wont be leaving GMail behind any time soon. I think it is also more geared towards those that use GMail as their primary account. With a little more use I am sure I will 'find' the value of it, at the moment it is just another window into my email that offers new features. |

Inbox is more like an extension of Gmail; it's not a replacement.

Unless of course you would like to PM me with an invite?
