I'd even go so far as to pay as well. Something like Joyent's Connector, only I'd probably only use the email part: http://joyent.com/connector Connector has tagging and imap support! Actually, after paying for Basecamp/Highrise/Backpack, another $8/mo isn't so bad. I would love to find a killer email app, and don’t think Google has it. I’d even go so far as to pay as well.

Connector has tagging and imap support! Actually, after paying for Basecamp/Highrise/Backpack, another $8/mo isn’t so bad.

I will not go back to using a desktop client as I just can't live without the speed and remote accessibility. I have looked at a number of the API integrator projects and haven't found one I have liked as they slow my whole workflow. I will take another look at Connector but speed is of the utmost importance. GMail's got it in spades. The downfall of Google Apps is a lack of good integration with anything. 37Signals suffers from the same problem. I have to say though that I think that I have a nice system down albeit without decent cross application integration. I have gotten a great work flow using the following: Gmail for email communications, Vitalist (http://my.vitalist.com/) for collection of projects and related actions, and Highrise for all other people related activity. If Highrise had integration with BaseCamp I'd probably drop Vitalist but Basecamp's cost benefit is not good for me as a single person (now). Thanks for your comment. Jay @Erik,
