Goodbye .Mac; hello MobileMe! Update: Or not!

Attention fellow Mac enthusiasts!

In preparation for Friday’s launch of iPhone3G, Apple has begun the transition from .Mac to MobileMe. I took this screen shot, which shows .Mac offline, at 11:11 p.m. CT.

MobileMe will offer push email, push contacts and push calendar.

Update at 9:30 p.m. July 10: Evidently Apple is having trouble migrating .Mac to MobileMe, as MobileMe has been online today only in spurts. It makes you wonder: Did Apple abandon OSX for Vista?
