A Week with MobileMe: Day Three
Day three of using MobileMe was fairy unexciting, as much of my day revolved around Calculus homework and running out to do errands.
I was hoping I might be able to use Mozilla Prism to place MobileMe Mail into a seperate Gecko instance, and thus have a workaround to the lockup issues I’m experiencing with the service under Firefox 3. Unfortunately, Apple has chosen to use browser sniffing and a broken JavaScript redirect method that makes this impossible, at least in my experiments. Unfortunately using more robust SSBs like Fluid is not an option in this experiment, as it is Mac-only. Hey Todd, I don’t suppose there’s any chance of a Windows port, eh? ;)
Mossberg posted his review of MobileMe today, and it wasn’t very favorable at all. Here’s the video version:
His points mirror my own at this stage, namely that the service is too buggy for real world use. He’s encountered a few issues I haven’t seen yet, but so far the ones I have are more than enough for me to say the service simply isn’t ready.
Read my thoughts from day one, two three, four, five, six or seven.
