Google adds offline capability to Gmail

Until now, unless you use POP3/IMAP to sync Gmail to email client such Outlook, Thunderbird, you can not work on your emails while been disconnected to the Internet.

But today Google is rolling out its offline capability using Google Gears, the capability that until now has been only available on Google Docs .

In order for this to work, you will need Google Gears plug-in to your browser, When being offline, Gmail allows you to work on cached emails as well as writing new email. When you go back online, they will be sync’ed up with Gmail server.
