You don't need an invitation to open up a free gmail account. That policy was online during gmail's beta test period. Anyone who wants a gmail account now can get one simply by going to http://gmail.google.com and following the directions to open an account. |

"Can I sign up without the invitation code? Or without a mobile phone? You need to receive and enter a special invitation code in order to create an account. Currently, we are only sending these codes as text messages to mobile phones....." http://mail.google.com/support/bin/a...er=22245&hl=en -- Cheers Chatty Cathy |

Go to: http://www.google.com/ click on sign in click on create an account now, fill out the boxes. At that point, it should create your account. I did not go any further because I do not want to create a new identity there. To this point, they are not asking for a lot of information. Hopefully that will get you around the sms registration and not bog you down elsewise. jim |

I'm thinking that was the way I did it because I went with google talk first. jim |

I believe they made it "open" registration for the first XXXXXX number of people, and now its by some sort of invite only. If I try to register now, it tells me I need an invitation. -- Cheers Chatty Cathy |

Because where I left off, your account would be established. AND that is very different from asking a bunch of questions to establish an account. It only asks about three to that point. jim |

Uhhhh. > >-sw Pouting? Me? Hardly. I got my gmail aco**** with nary an invitation nor using a phone number. You haven't and have whined about it. BTW, what did happen to you after it created your account? No phone number required to that point and your account was created - yet you said that could not happen without revealing a bunch of info you would rather not???? An email address and a password? THAT'S what you whined about. Your gardner has more information on you than that. Ask him what he knows about you when he picks the fruit off your tree. jim |
