MobileMe launch pushed back two hours

by Dave Caolo Jul 9th 2008 at 9:30PM

Yesterday, we noticed that the .Mac status page listed a MobileMe launch date and time of July 9th between 6 p.m. until 12 a.m. PT. Tonight, there seems to have been a change.

As of this writing, the .Mac status page says, "MobileMe Launch: 7/9/2008, 8pm-2am PT -- As part of the MobileMe launch, www.mac.com will be taken offline at 8pm PT on Wednesday, July 9th."

So, we've got to wait two more hours? Oh, no! Actually, we'd rather the folks at Apple take the time necessary to do things right. Oh, who are we kidding ... we want MobileMe!

Stay tuned here for the latest information on this transition.

Thanks to everyone who sent this in.

Did .Mac just now disappear from the "ProductFlow" on the Mac section of apple.com, or has it been gone a while?

You know, Apple has got to be SO po'd at all of us right now with all the refreshes we're doing..... waiting for a terse message on me.com: "Knock it the hell off!!! --Steve."
