Hi Neil, thanks. I've always been a bit put off by the price. I use Time Machine to back up my Mac, and have just relied on syncing to keep my contacts current. But I may have to take a look, and at least give it a try. I do like the Remote Lock features, and the ability to find your phone,

I think it is well worth it, it makes more financial sense if you have a family pass, so if you have a wife / husband / partner etc, that way the cost begins to dramatically fall per user, but I'd still even have the single user account. yes its expensive compared to similar other services, I th

what I would just say here is that I've found nothing for a Mac / iPhone / iPad user that comes close to the level of integration that the Mobile Me service offers, sure there's similar, but nothing is quite as all encompassing and delivers such ease with regards to the Apple side of things, it

Thanks Esther. As always, your advice, suggestions, and user-experience is invaluable. :) I'll soon be a new Mac user, so it's fabulous that you're still as freely-giving with your methodology as you are. Thanks again, am off to have a look at Amazon upon sending. Twitter: @IndigoCellist Sent

Hi, I answered Chris's post on the mac-access list, but the quick summary is that if you buy the box sets for 1 year of MobileMe service, either in a store or on-line through Amazon, or another vendor, you can scan and OCR the 16 character activation code that is stickered onto either the enclo

I too am curious as to your findings here, because I intended to subscribe with MobileMe within the next few weeks, and/or upon the supposed big announcement in April. Is this service more accessible on the Mac side than windows for example? Or is access a dead thing across the board? This is tr
