New Gmail features (mail.google.com)

Speaking of the emoticons feature, am I the only one to absolutely prefer good old text emoticons over image ones? The silliest are the so-called "next-generation emoticons", they're so silly-ugly.

These are really old. Colored labels have been out for a while.

i think the list should be this one instead: http://mail.google.com/mail/help/intl/en/about_whatsnew.html

These aren't new. When something's new it usually get announced on the blog and there is some sort of red new link in the upper right.

When are they going to add a To-Do list? Either in gmail or calendar. This would be really helpful.

I wish I can edit attachments via Google Docs and send it back out again.

I'd like to see segregation of attachments (should probably put the suggestion to the team). My brother's wife always sends photos as attachments. I have to download them manually if I want them in picassa which is tedious.
