Apple has set the date to launch its new service called MobileMe for tomorrow. MobileMe is a replacement for Apple's aging .Mac subscription service. In a nutshell, MobileMe accomplishes what Microsoft's LiveMesh was supposed to deliver (ie. the ability to access your data anywhere and sync the information amongst all your devices) For me, this is an interesting concept and I'm guessing that a lot of people will be joining up for this new service...especially as a lot of people will be getting iPhone 3Gs and it is compatible with Windows machines (after all, it is web-based) In any case, for a more detailed explanation, visit Apple's MobileMe webpage at: http://www.apple.com/mobileme/

After a rocky weekend rollout, it seems that unfortunately, Apple's newly rolled out web-based internet services application, called MobileMe is still experiencing problems.

When MobileMe first was introduced, I was really excited and intrigued by what Apple was trying to accomplish. The concept behind MobileMe is a great one, syncing calender, contact and email data over the internet to ALL your devices (your desktop, iphone, laptop, etc.).

In any case, while I think I will be purchasing the service in the future, I'm glad that I haven't jumped right in as they say because it seems that approximately 1% of MobileMe users are having email problems.

We'll see what the next few weeks hold for MobileMe users, but I wish Apple all the best because I want this new service of theirs to succeed. Good Luck Apple!
