Apple's Mobile Me - nightmare!

Is anyone having trouble with Apple's Mobile Me?  At this point I hate it.  I have been patient....but, what is up with it? I want to know whether you like it and whether it is worth sticking it out hoping it will get better.  I usually love Apple products but this has a been a nightmare. I have had trouble with it for about a month.  Apple keeps emailing me that they are working on it and ... read more

I am tempted by this...

A few months ago I had my Verizon Blackberry Curve charging in a hotel room on the floor and I stepped on it (yes, I know....I am an idiot) and cracked the screen.  I have been waiting for a new Verizon Blackberry model to come out to replace my Curve with the cracked screen ...this might be it...it is out any day ..

Apple and Mobile Me? Nightmare ?

Ugh....my Apple Mobile Me service is even worse today.  I can't access my Apple Mobile Me email or calendar.  It all started with the Mobile Me gallery.   Is anyone else having this problem ? (and yes, while I love my Apple lap top, I now hate the Apple Mobile Me...it is a nightmare.  They fix it..it breaks...they fix it..it breaks...they fix it...it breaks...Apple told us last week that one ... read more

HELP! APPLE and Mobile Me

My Apple Mobile Me account has been a nightmare. The photo gallery is ridiculous.  It works one second, and then crashes.  We have been on the phone with Apple for days...are any of you finding the same problem?  Does it work for any of you? I don't know if I am just jinxed or whether it is a lousy product.   I am pretty frustrated (especially since this a service I pay for and now pay for it ... read more

Tech Advice Needed

Do any of you know anything about the Virgin Mobile Broadband2Go? Is it any good? how about the speed compared to Verizon's air card? (I use Verizon because it works on the corridor the train takes from DC to NYC...but I suspect mine is slow...I have had it for a long time.)
