Mailbox acquired by Dropbox

That comes as a bit of a surprise: Mailbox, the latest attempt in providing a modern, mobile-first user experience for eMail, has been acquired by Dropbox.

I hadn’t expected Mailbox to be acquired that quickly after their carefully orchestrated and much-hyped launch.

I hope they continue working on their vision. Though I have one or two smaller gripes about missing features, there’s a lot of potential in their design.
