Google has launched a service that will allow people to access Google News and gmail via their mobile phones.Already available in the US, the service, which is being launched across the UK, France, Germany and Spain allows users to access the new services via a mobile phone browser.

To access email, users can visit gmail.com through the web browser on their mobile and sign in to their gmail account as they would on the web.
