Vic Gundotra, VP of engineering at Google has demonstrated an offline version of Gmail for the iPhone 3G.
The app relies on HTML5 standards which allow for a local database and app cache. These standards allow your device to save a copy of your Gmail locally for access while your phone is in Airport mode or out of service. When you go back online the database could sync back with Gmail.
