'Mobile Me' the new name of .Mac?

I agree. HORRENDOUS Microsofty-name. What the hell was wrong with DotMac? Or even MobileMac? Or MacWeb? I for one will NEVER use the "@me.com" designation. I'll cancel if I have to.

Yeah, I agree. Mobile Me isn't the best name, I am actually hoping that it turns out to be a different name but it's not lookign that way. I do actually hope that ,if .Mac is changed, it comes out on Windows. I am sorry to say that I am a Windows User and have friends with the .Mac service on their Mac and they love it. I don't know......part of me is hoping for a change in .mac and part of me is not(if it involves the name change to Mobile Me)

Looks to me like it will be me.com

I hink "Mobile Me" will become .Mac's tagline. On the box, it'll say ".Mac-Mobile Me" which would coincide with rumors of an overhaul to fit Apple's newer mobile-focused development

The computer, oops I meant, the Phone is personal again.

Hahah.

Sorry HP.

Mobile Me? You mean Mobile Millennium Edition?? Sweet! I thought Microsoft moved on but...

Yea, this is a terrible name. Reminds me of "My Computer" on a Win desktop. Very Microsoft-y.

Mobile meh...

You guys have all missed this one by a mile. MobileMe is not a .Mac thing, it's a cell service.

Apple is going to resell at&t cell service. Tons of companies did / do this. Disney tried it for a while buying up Sprint/Nextel service and wrapping their feel on the phone. ESPN and a few others too.

Apple could simply be deciding to make more money. The phone has the branding. People want the iPhone regardless of the carrier.

This also works out for at&t, seeing they won't loose money because Apple will be renting a large chunk of their network. Apple doesn't have to build a network and everyone wins.

MobileMe just doesn't have any tie in to .Mac in my opinion.

im betting that mobile me isnt the new name at all.
i think its a sub name..

like pages is within iWork etc

mobileme will just be one of the services included in a larger internet services package..

either way i cant wait for the upgrade . .
ive been a loyal dotmac customer since it was released (remember - it was free!!!)

I always hated the "My...." or "....me" names, as if we made them up ourselves. Mobile me? please. Sounds more like sms dating than a serious product.
