Post reblogged from Marco's stuff
(Yes!)
“A new service: It’s like having Exchange for the rest of us.”
Push contact/email/calendar for everyone. Stores information “in the cloud”. Syncs to Mac/PC/iPhone, over-the-air. Mail, iCal, Address Book on Mac. Outlook on PC (!).
“Web 2.0 AJAX applications” for web access to all of these things too. Includes photo album sharing and iDisk, too, also with web interfaces.
Available at www.me.com, sign in and get all of your data through desktop-like web apps.
$99/year, 20 GB, 60-day free trial. Replaces .Mac. Available in “early July”.
This is probably why there’s a 10.5.4 update coming this week.
Really looking forward to this (having a nice Exchange setup was one of the best perks of working for Microsoft last summer). That said, it could be really useless if it doesn’t support 3rd party email addresses (I don’t really want to be dan@me.com)
