Gmail is broken broken broken

Did I mention that it was broken? Here are my list of complaints

• Earlier in the week I couldn't get access to it at all.
• For some reason mail from certain other providers would be delayed by hours.
• Over the last month I've had constant problems as I've been forwarding the gmail mail to my other account. Things sometimes don't forward for no reason at all.

I love the idea of Gmail and the flexibility that it provides. The promise of Gmail is enormous. However the most important feature of email or almost any other product is that it works. Gmail is failing at this.

Anyone else having problems? I was poking around and wasn't sure if I was an isolated case?

Update: Ok I'm note the only one having problems.
