MobileMe is a new Internet service from Apple that automatically syncs email, contacts, and calendars from a secure Internet server, or "cloud," to all the devices you use: your iPhone, iPod touch, as well as Mac and PC computers. This data is accessible anywhere and automatically ensures that you get identical email, contacts, and calendars, no matter which device you use.
MobileMe also provides a suite of ad-free web applications that deliver a desktop-like experience through any modern browser. MobileMe applications at me.com include Mail, Contacts, and Calendar, as well as Gallery for viewing and sharing photos, 20GB of storage, and iDisk for storing and sharing documents online.
MobileMe takes the best of .Mac and adds a host of new features. .Mac customers will enjoy new web applications; automatic sync email, contacts, and calendar; and 20GB of online storage. Also, .Mac customers will continue to experience Mac integration they know and love, such as Back to My Mac; access to their iDisk in the Finder; Mac-to-Mac syncing of Dashboard widgets, Dock items, preferences and more; iWeb website publishing; and photo and movie sharing directly from iPhoto '08 and iMovie '08.
