Just to be clear, Gmail was _not_ written with GWT.


It's worth noting, though, that Google's implementation of Wave is written in GWT. Since GMail predates the invention of GWT, it's likely that it would be a GWT application if started today.


Many things would be different if Gmail were started today -- not all of them good :)


Though it probably would be if the project were started today.


does new v3 beta maps use gwt?


I don't believe so, though the web implementation of Latitude (http://maps.google.com/maps/m?mode=latitude) for iPhone and Palm Pre does.
