  • TruckStuff, on 07/07/2008, -3/+46Ehhh... isn't it *supposed* to do this? Why is this news-worthy?
  • meannate, on 07/08/2008, -6/+33Apple farts, and the world notices.
  • Dradu, on 07/08/2008, -1/+21Am I the only one who thinks the old @mac.com sounds better than @me.com?
  • SheVibe, on 07/07/2008, -4/+18MobileMe does push, they don't. Yahoo pretends to but it doesn't work half the time.
  • inactive, on 07/07/2008, -1/+12The only thing Yahoo pushes is their *BLEEP* up our collective *BLEEP*
  • inactive, on 07/08/2008, -4/+14ME ?....... Millennium Edition
    urgh...*shivers*
  • sadpoti, on 07/08/2008, -1/+10I think some people have no clue what "push" means. If you think "IMAP works just as well as push", find out what the terms actually mean before you start talking like you know.
  • bmullins, on 07/08/2008, -4/+11Yaaay... now I can be just as unique as everyone else!
  • inactive, on 07/08/2008, -0/+6How can IMAP "work just as well as push"? You don't understand how either of these work, clearly.
  • imcquill, on 07/08/2008, -1/+6I'm not so sure IMAP works as well as push. Try keeping a few IMAP clients for the same account open at once. They start to get pretty confused when you make changes to one. I've definitely sat at a computer connected via IMAP and had no new messages show up, but they were showing up on another computer where I left mail running. Plus the whole polling thing wasting batteries.
  • axisofphilippe, on 07/07/2008, -4/+8Working for me.
  • krutadal, on 07/08/2008, -0/+4Oh, wow. An e-mail service where you can send *and* receive messages? I tell you, this is the Next Big Thing. GMail, move over.
  • chroko, on 07/08/2008, -1/+5Apple need to add one missing feature and the Me / Mac mail service will be usable and awesome:

    + Server-side mail rules.

    Until then, it is... kinda lame.
  • RobSaint, on 07/08/2008, -0/+3From the .Mac user page:
    MobileMe Launch
    7/9/2008, 6pm-12am PT
    So does that mean the iPhone 2.0 will be released tomorrow as well?
  • Wang, on 07/08/2008, -2/+5I feel one more clarification is needed - is this for both sending and receiving? :)
  • bazbloke, on 07/08/2008, -1/+4who cares? lame.
  • nanboya, on 07/08/2008, -1/+4Because it's just a PC... :-)
  • pl0x, on 07/08/2008, -1/+4Its actually Apple farts, and the world cares.

    Then throws a party, and writes a Digg article.
  • EyeBaller1, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2Yeah... if it was EMAIL then that would be huge news...
  • inactive, on 07/07/2008, -3/+5Because you can start using it today.
  • inactive, on 07/08/2008, -2/+4So what?
  • gravis86, on 07/08/2008, -1/+2Isn't that a bad thing?
  • fezzen, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1I see nothing here about what the hell this is or why we're supposed to care. Might want to include tidbits like that when submitting to a news aggregator.

    Buried because this definitely does not belong on digg.
  • meannate, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1Maybe "... and the world sniffs" would be more appropriate.
  • Scottievm, on 07/08/2008, -1/+2Absolutely not, I'd feel like a complete douchebag telling someone that my e-mail address was blahblah@me.com...
  • gurellia53, on 07/08/2008, -4/+5why is this on the front page and absolutely nothing about the Eee PC 901 which was just released?
  • Velok, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1...so.... you think @me.com sounds better than @mac.com, because you'd feel like a complete douche with an @me.com address... yeah, I think I see the logic there...
    :)
  • Samtherocker, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1I'm not sure about @mac vs. @me.

    I like that @me is impartial and doesn't say, "Hi, I'm a mac" but it sounds a bit strange saying myname@me.com.

    Either way, I'm glad that apple lets customers choose which they'd prefer to use.
  • inactive, on 07/08/2008, -3/+3i see what you did there.
  • Dwebtron, on 07/08/2008, -3/+3so?
  • Aereo, on 07/08/2008, -3/+3I tried plugging in my Me.com address in a new Exchange account on my iPhone, and it's working beautifully.
  • microview2007, on 07/08/2008, -2/+2Look @ me now! w00t!
  • cawpin, on 07/07/2008, -11/+11Google has IMAP. It works just as well as push.
  • inactive, on 08/04/2008, -0/+0Works fine for me :)

  • yokozuka, on 07/08/2008, -2/+1It does work, and quite well. Push is working with my iPhone 2.0 5A345 software too.
  • mhearne, on 07/08/2008, -3/+2Cheese farts are worse.
  • Heck13, on 07/07/2008, -7/+5why not wait until apple send an upgrade that will do it automatically?
  • anmaxp, on 07/08/2008, -5/+3and how about sending and receiving?
  • inactive, on 07/07/2008, -7/+4Not yet. It was suppose to start working this friday. It's working now, you only have to set up the mail program using the instructions in the page.
  • dansy, on 07/07/2008, -15/+10Oh, that is the 'revolutionary' service that does for money pretty much what Gmail, Yahoo and Hotmail do for free ???
