Certainly ties into the discussion about google making two of everything [0]. It's not clear how this product is meant to co-exist naturally with gmail.

I'm definitely not the target audience for this and I really hope that Google isn't going to force me to upgrade to Inbox. Looking at you G+.

This looks very much like Mailbox, in particular the swipe left and right to archive/snooze a message.

They didn't show the web interface, I wonder if it will just be baked into the Gmail mobile apps?

The latest product from Sparrow? I've been already into the refreshing UIs of Inbox.

Can't wait for the invitation.

GOS talked about it a few days ago before the announcement for those interested: http://googlesystem.blogspot.se/2014/10/google-inbox.html

I'm interested but I keep seeing that this sort of stuff never takes into accounts things such as mailing lists (a la mailman and such). I hope I'm wrong.

That's exactly my first thought. The only differentiating feature mentioned in the video from what I could gather was an indicator of importance that the app determines.
