Love it!

Just a little history about me and my use of the software. I was a .mac user prior to mobile me. I switched over from pc about a year ago and have enjoyed the transition. I really like not being asked to fix everyone else's pcs any longer because they are tired of me saying, "Yeah, I don't have that problem on my mac."

Now the review. What is with all of the hating of this product? I love it. It pushes to my ipod touch, it works well on all of my computers. I do not understand why people are still griping. Did the roll out of this new product go smoothly? No, not in the least but all is well now. It was a rocky transition but Vista is still in transition nearly two years after a roll out.

For those unluckly 2% that had real mobileme problems, yes, you had it rough for a few days but the rest of us were mostly mad because it did not get started until a day or so after we expected.

Benefits
The push feature on email, address book, and calendar are great. I can make a change on my ipod touch (or iphone) and my home computer in another country is updated.

As an added benefit I really like how everything flows together. I realize that I can publish my pictures on another site but I like how iPhoto integrates into my online gallery. I realize that I can publish videos to any site but I like how iMovie integrates to my gallery.

Some have said that all of these features in mobile me can be found in other places. Most of the online features are available but they are not integrated, they are unreliable, and who wants all of the advertisements? I had been using these work arounds prior to .mac and now mobileme... it is worth the $112 or so that mobileme family pack costs to not have to deal with the other services.

After using the service for a few weeks, I upgraded to the family plan so that my wife could use it as well. She loves it.

Too difficult to use for work place

I should have listen to all the negative reviews that have been posted everywhere and not just Amazon.com. It is easily one of the WORST product that I have ever used. It simply does not work as advertised.

Apple advertised that it works well with Outlook on PC but it never bother to tell you that if your Outlook connects to Microsoft Exchange Server, it will not sync with your Contacts and Calenders. It tells you only when you bought the package and then tell you when you are setting up. A big company like Apple could be so sneaky. I guess all the marketings are the same. Boast big deliver little.

Push emails, contacts and calenders that never push. I sent test emails, imported contacts and calenders. The following day, absolutely nothing got pushed to my iPhone. I finally gave up the following day and not bother to sync my contacts and calenders anymore.

What a waste of money!!! It is a product that is not ready for prime time yet. For all Apple fanboys, please don't tell me give Apple time to work all the bugs out because it promises a lot of features. If you charge people money, you better deliver good product instead of a piece of JUNK.
