Summary: MobileMe. I can not imagine being without it!
Comment: I love this service! The 99$ subscription may be a little hard to swallow, but I can't see myself NOT using this service.

By far the best feature is the iPhoto sync with the online gallery! All I do is plug in my camera to iPhoto, it pulls the pictures from the camera, I tweak them ever so slighty, and post them on my Online Gallery for the rest of my family and friends to view at their leasure. If I make a change to one of the pictures in iPhoto, it automatically syncs the change. Beautiful!

The iDisk has saved me quite a few times when I have forgotten my flash drive at home and needed to save something to share on a diffrent computer.

The only gripe I have about this service is, I dislike the domain name for the e-mail address. ( yourname@ME.COM )I really liked the old domain name ( yourname@mac.com )But I do like the alias option.

Just like with anything that is new, There are a few bugs when syncing with the mail server, but they are usually fixed right away.

If you own a mac, or even if you do not own a mac ( i started using this service a few months BEFORE owning my mac ) This service is amazing!

Summary: Horrible - compatability issues with PCs
Comment: I just got this product and had tons of issues with syncing up PCs. The support is really bad too. They don't really support PC issues. I do not recommend this product.

Summary: Why am I still using MobileMe?
Comment: Been using iTools and .Mac from the beginning just as many users here.

MobileMe has taken it another few steps backwards.

Firstly, the petty issue of the name. C'mon Apple, you could have done better.

The iPhone has thrown you off course, just like the iPod did. It's at the point where you don't even get full sync with new handsets, but that's another issue for another time. After some months the bugs seem to be growing. While they have extended my subscription, I feel I'm going to let this die.

I would rather pay for features that I can use now with my Mac. $100 seems way too much for all those features I'm not going to use. Sure I loved hosting my homepage on .Mac - iPhoto works great with uploading your special photos for the world to see. The templates are very nice at first. Discounts of some software (but many I did use)... So many great little things I enjoyed that now have been worn off.

Apple it's time you really get serious. You should change your pricing structure into a more 'web hosting' model so we can pay for what we want.

MobileMe is just one of those service that is going to fail and another name change is not going to help you.

Summary: Dear God, what a mess...
Comment: Mobile Me is a total mess. I would recommend that anyone who is thinking about using it or puchasing it have their head checked. And after the response from Apple, that goes for all Apple products.

In the conversion from .mac to Mobile Me, all of my contacts were lost. Five years worth. Of course, Apple Support told me it was my fault. (Never mind that I was paying them to keep my data safe on their servers, with promises from them of stability). The consolation? Three free months of Mobile Me, a crappy service at a $25 value. That will not even pay for the first 30 minutes of my time trying to gather all of my contacts back.

I have used macs and apple-related products exclusively for several years. I was a convert from Windows to Apple. Now, I am more discriminate in my selection of technology-related products and understand that Apple is more style over substance. Thick-rimmed glasses and pretentious commercials have very little to do with quality and customer support. It is very unlikely I will continue to patronize Apple in the future.


Editorial Reviews:

Imagine running beautifully designed, easy-to-use Apple applications on your PC. At me.com, you can check your email, manage your contacts and calendar, share photos, and store documents. The applications are so intuitive and clutter free that me.com could become your new desktop. On a PC, MobileMe works seamlessly with the applications you use every day. You can use Outlook, Outlook Express, and Windows Contacts on XP or Vista. MobileMe automatically pushes your email, contacts, and calendars ? and even your Safari or Internet Explorer bookmarks ? to your other computers, iPhone, and iPod touch. If you have more than one PC, use MobileMe to keep email, contacts, calendars, and bookmarks the same on all of them. If you have a Mac and a PC, they can share the same information. MobileMe will keep your computers, iPhone, and iPod touch in sync and up to date. Do everything you need to do on every device you own. MobileMe works with Mail, Address Book, and iCal on a Mac; Microsoft Outlook on a PC with Windows XP or Vista; and the built-in applications on your iPhone or iPod touch.
