Default Gmail app won't work

Please Login to Remove!

I have downloaded the Gmail app and tried to open it.
It will not open so that it can be setup.

Is this because I don't have a data plan?

The same situation applies to weathereye app.

It won't open either.

My experience with the gmail app is that it will not work with wifi, meaning you probably need a data plan.

I have this app working... but it is SLOW... I get gmail messages on my PC about 15-20 minutes earlier than on the phone.

Annoying, as I was having a back and forth conversation with somebody yesterday via gmail, and my phone would buzz at say, 3:58, and the email was stamped 3:41... 17 minute delay.

Anybody else have this issue?
