MobileMe iDisk app updated

The open in other apps feature is nice, but needs a bit of work. When I open a pdf, and hit the button to open in another app, it gives me 2 buttons, iBooks and Stanza. Fair enough. But next to iBooks is the Stanza icon, and there is no icon next to Stanza. After a doubletake I did manage to get it open in my app of choice, but I hope there's some sort of fix for it.

Forgive my ignorance if this is an obvious question. Can I open, edit, and save documents from Pages for iPad onto iDisk? Can I create new files in Pages for iPad and save them onto iDisk?

This is a fantastic update. On top of the shared editable calendars in the calendar update MobileMe is getting better and better.

Yeah, yeah, I know Dropbox and Google can do that. Dropbox isn't free after the first 2GB, and I don't like that Google looks at my junk so they can serve me adds. MobileMe just integrates with too well with everything.

I prefer using a pogoplug device, which offers internet access to as many gigabytes of docs and media as you plug into the thing.

So does this now make it worth a hundred bucks?
Not for me

It also won't let you view any files that are over 50Mb. Even on Wi-Fi. That was a bit frustrating. I may end up not renewing my MobileMe subscription this year. Right now the only use for it for me is the Find My iPhone, and that's really more of a insurance policy than useful anyway.

Ever since I discovered Dropbox, I've stopped using iDisk and never looked back.
Now the I use google to sync contacts and calendars OTA and mostly use gmail over MobileMe email, (horrible spam filtering on the latter) I see little value in MobileMe.
