I agree with everybody else here. There's no way that Google will choose the image on the right. It looks stupid.

I'm not so sure you guys, it just might be according to some folks closer to the source. We shall see.

Edited: Well, I've finally found out what all the brewhaha was about with the new image on the right. It seems that a man in Germany owns the rights to "G-mail" there, so the logo is used in Germany only!

The Source

Translated using my trusty Google Translate tool.
Quote:
Gmail is called now in Germany Google Mail Google its E-Mail service Gmail in Google Mail renamed. Since Friday prangt the new name on the starting side, but only, if one accesses from Germany. Background is the controversy over the German rights of the use of a name with that Hamburg entrepreneur Daniel Giersch. This possesses the word/picture mark "g-mail... and the post office goes correctly off". Under the name g-Mail operates it a set of physical and electronic postal service achievements, explained it opposite heise on-line. Beginning of the yearly the lawyers of Giersch had set Gmail users, who had sold invitations for the service on eBay, for warnings. Google negotiated meanwhile with Giersch and tried to find a solution in the name conflict could however no agreement obtain.

Why don't Google have their Gmail's logo set with the same font as Google logo itself? =]

As simply a matter of aesthetics, the Gmail logo could use a little tweaking.
