 Great mobile data solution November 17, 2008

I never had .Mac but recently decided to purchase MobileMe because I now own an iPhone and have 2 macs at home. The idea of being able to have consistent records on all 3 devices is priceless and everything works as advertised so far.

I have been a user of .Mac and now MobilMe for several years and am very happy with it. I highly recommend it. The yearly renewal cost is significantly lower if bought from Amazon rather than Apple.
 Ughh, there are way too many apple apologists out there October 29, 2008

I'm a long time .Mac and now Mobile Me user. It's insane how much slack people give Apple (but jump all over MSFT).
Perhaps some of the bugs have been ironed out, but the web mail client is still terrible. It's incredibly slow and behaves badly in Firefox. I love my Macbook Pro, but refuse to give apple another dime for this service. The free months are being used to migrate away.
Apple has worked out the bugs..... October 28, 2008

It appears that Apple has solved the problems that plagued MobileMe earlier this year. I have found the service to be trouble free and find that it does everything that I need it to do. I can seamlessly sync between my iphone, MacBook Pro and "the cloud".
Worth a revisit! Disastrous launch but dramatically improved since. October 26, 2008

I notice a lot of the reviews - particularly the negative ones - are dated in July of '08 when the service launched. I think it's important to write a fresh review of things as they stand now, at least for me.
I was one of the people who first tried MobileMe when it officially launched, and I almost immediately gave up on it. Horrible stability and reliability, and for two solid weeks straight, I couldn't even log into the service.
Then Apple began extending the trial periods, and after about month or so, I revisited MobileMe after the problems started to clear up. I can now say that MobileMe is VERY reliable and VERY worth using, in my experience.
I use mobileMe presently to sync my calendars and contacts across three Macs and one iPhone. I also publish my calendar on the web for friends and co-workers to collaborate with. Push functionality works well on the iPhone, and I have my Macs set to sync every hour, making sure everything is up to date on a regular basis. Mail has also been very reliable for me, and I've recently started to add photo albums as well.
No doubt, the launch was really disastrous, and the negative publicity it got at the time was well deserved. however the problems appear to have been fixed and the current MobileMe service is MUCH better.
