When I have the problem of letter's appearing slowly after I
type,
it's usually the result of high CPU utilization (the
computer is
really busy).
One commonality I'm hearing here from this and other threads
of the
missing letters is they all seem to be running Safari on
MAC. Safari
on MAC is only a supported browser at v1.3
<https://mail.google.com/support/bin
/answer.py?answer=6557&topic=1524>.
And I've heard a few mentions of Safari 3.0beta. Since
GMail is
actually a web application, and is essentially downloaded
and run on
your computer, if there is a problem with GMail working on
Safari,
those could easily be symptoms.
I would try loading Firefox, or any other browser, to see if
that
definitely clears it up. If not, try going to your local
library and
use your GMail account on one of those machines (be sure to
Sign Out
so you don't leave your cookie there for people to use). If
you have
the same problem on another machine, it's Google, if another
browser
fixes it, it's Safari.
Any other MAC users here, running Safari 3.0, that can
report they
have never had a problem?
