Techopedia explains MobileMe
Like Windows Live Essentials, MobileMe included cloud productivity and synchronization tools, communication services and remote storage. MobileMe applications and services included:
- Find My iPhone: An online tool for iPhone tracking and management
- Cloud storage: Up to 40 GB
- Address Book and calendar (iCal): An online contacts and scheduling directory created by synching the iPhone
- iGallery: Online photo and video storage
Rumor has it that Steve Jobs was so upset with MobileMe's quality that he fired the employees in charge of the project in front of a large audience of Apple employees.
