Increase frequency of Mac to MobilMe/iPhone synch
With the risk of generating the typical internet frenzied hostility, I have to say that I don't understand the anger over the push feature of MobileMe. If you want push, it's simply a matter of going to the MobileMe web apps and making changes there. How critical are the speed of changes to my address book and bookmarks anyway? The whole thing is brand new. Yep, it's a sluggish right now. My guess is that it takes time to optimize such a thing. Activesync and Exchange have been around for a long time now. I have them at work. Yes it's true push but it's typical Microsoft, clunky and aesthetically just dumb. Apple's work is always elegant and a pleasure to use. How about we cut them a little slack?

Maybe I missed something . . . Since the new "push" features were announced, I had the impression that the pushing was really geared towards the iPhone and MobileMe website, not towards the desktop. I got the impression that the desktop would have to go through the normal sync process for calendar and contacts entries, and email would have to do a call out to the server. I guess I rightly underestimated the new feature set.

Although I tend to lean toward cutting slack. Apple needs to have a wake-up call or there end user will ultimately suffer by them continuing lying to us. They advertised the service to work a certain way (maybe something they weren't able to do or just didn't have time to do) and then making money off that. Any way you slice it it's miss advertisement. So either we rally for a class action or we fight back and "entice" them to rethink by loading up there servers. I like the last option better. My three computers are connecting away! |
