They're a waste of money at any price. I hear from a friend who activated his wave account this morning, that you can't create a wave account that has the same name as a gmail account. So it seems very likely that all gmail accounts will eventually be wave accounts someday anyway.
- pohl 17y agoIf the wave invitation is sent to one's existing gmail account, that shouldn't be a problem. Still, people are crazy with their money!
- bmelton 17y agoJust today I went through the process of associating my gmail account to my wave account. As for whether or not it's a waste, if you were a developer looking to leverage the Wave platform, and have not already gotten an invite, I'd guess $100 is a very small price to pay for access.

- bkbleikamp 17y agoWhen I got access to Wave a few months ago, it was not possible to associate Gmail accounts with Wave at the time. I am guessing that with the new rollout, they have made it possible.
