*Sparrow Lite* is a handy tool for Gmail users that's exactly the same as
Sparrow but is limited to just one Gmail account and features ads. The
discreet interface feels a little bit like the Tweetie Twitter client with a
slick Cocoa finish and an easy to scroll through threaded message window. You
view previews of mails in the main window and click on them to expand the
full view. You can read them in a new window or open the right pane to enjoy
Sparrow Lite's full potential. An unread message in the counter sits in your
Menu Bar to keep track of mails and Growl notifications let you know when a
new message has arrived. Unfortunately, in this Lite version of Sparrow, you
can only add one Gmail account and you will be pestered by ads from time to
time. In addition, some of the functionality of Gmail is missing. For
example, you can't access filtering functions and you can't edit signatures.
Finally, Sparrow Lite seems to be quite heavy on resources so watch out for
it hogging your CPU. *If you're a Gmail user looking for a slightly different
way to manage your account, Sparrow Lite is worth a go.*Download *Sparrow
