Invites are no longer necessary; it's not in beta anymore, although  
an invite might let you skip out of providing your cell number.  All  
jokes about the "guv'mint trackin" aside, it always weirded me out  
that Gmail asks for your cell number to give you an account.

Google's Gmail has its own problems.  Number one being the quick- 
reply function, which quotes the entire thread and top-posts.  I  
noticed a HUGE increase in the amount of both when gmail started  
getting very popular among listers.  We now pay for our bandwidth, so  
yeah...it's not trivial.
