My main personal email is still down. This has been the case since at least 1 PM on Friday. Apple’s MobileMe was down for “scheduled maintenance” last night, and now they have a lovely announcement on their support page saying, “MobileMe is now available!” No it isn’t assholes! Not to those of us that are still part of the group you mention right above that: “1% of MobileMe members cannot access MobileMe Mail. We apologize for any inconvenience.”
That message hasn’t changed in two days. No updates. No explanations. No nothing. As I mentioned yesterday, I sent an email to the New York Times’ David Pogue. He actually sent me a brief response last night: “Yep, this rollout was a real disaster, for sure. Sorry to hear it’s causing you grief! Here’s hoping they get it worked out quickly!” I’ve never been so disappointed in Apple. I’ve also never more seriously considered dropping my Mac.com-now-MobileMe membership service.
At least today … fuck you Apple!
