MobileMe debacle

mobileme
It’s finally been admitted. MobileMe was launched too hastily, thereby causing much confusion, inconvenience and a huge loss of face for Apple. So when are they going to get round to accepting that the problems began with the crap name? Presumably it was aimed at a younger generation, but surely it’s too lacking in what constitutes ‘cool’ even for the most gullible teenager?

I realise they wanted something that did not include the word ‘mac’ so as not frighten off the PC crowd. But MobileMe is not the answer. Hopefully, when all settles down and begins to work smoothly, MobileMe will be quietly dragged off to the place where bad tags go.
