Here's an interesting I, Cringely commentary on MobileMe, what it means to Apple, and why it was the most important announcement during Jobs' Keynote at WWDC.
Enjoy!

Veeeeerryy interesting. Plenty of food for thought there. Google is locked into a give-it-away-for-free mode, their GoogleApps are painful to use, and many companies are not happy about hanging corporate documents out there for bots to search.
I do question how the transition from dot Mac, which has only luke warm love, to MobileMe, Microsoft killer, is going to happen.

There is even a top level domain, .me which was ostensibly for the country of Montenegro. That would have been a coup!
