Came across this earlier today:
http://www.i-symbian.com/simple-gmai...er-for-symbian
It's simple enough to alter these apps so they run on the WRT distribution for Maemo, so I've made the changes (added config.xml) and attached it here.
It does nothing other that create an application icon and launch the existing GMail touchscreen interface. Pretty useless if you already have a bookmark
You'll need Qt WRT (from extras-devel) before you can do this.

Since we cannot attach wgt files to messages, I've left the file as a zip file.
To install, rename as gmail.wgt, upload to your N900 and run using File Manager - the Application Manager should install it.
Alternatively, from the command line, run
This will convert it into a .deb file and install using dpkg.Code:widgetinstaller gmail.wgt

This is just the touch version of Gmail, you can just save this address as a shortcut on your home screen https://mail.google.com/mail/x/gdlakb-/gp/?shva=1
Would a WRT widget really be any quicker or better ?

Yep. That's definitely the other option. I already have that shortcut. With the WRT, you do get a nice icon in your apps menu though.
Apart from that ; neither quicker, neither better and relatively pointless, unless you wish to start looking at porting other Symbian WRT stuff.

Ohh yeah...id love to see a proper FB client, with the Facebook Colours, touch.facebook.com style would be fine but just in an actual app
