Summary: It's horrible!!!!
Comment: I have been an exclusive mac user for 20 years and Mobileme is the worse product from mac that I have ever used. I lost all of the contacts from my iphone and address book. pouf, gone, just like that! Customer support could not help me and acted like they could care less. It's junk. They need to take it off the market and fix it.

Summary: It works fine NOW! Take reviews pre-August 1 with a grain of salt...
Comment: Almost all the reviews giving it 1 star are from the horrible period where Apple switched from .Mac to me.com and launched the iPhone 3G.
Those days are over now. It all works fine now. So all these complaints about it "not working" are now moot. I was angry at the time about the transition, but it's all worked fine for over a month (with 1 email outage for a couple hours), and it will only get better.
I would give it 4 stars due to some things they could improve, but gave it 5 to help cancel out all the spiteful 1s that no longer apply. :)

Summary: Good product, which like all cloud stuff struggles
Comment: I have used .Mac for about a year, and now that it has transitioned to MobileMe, I have to say that I think that it is a bit better. When I got my iphone, the phone immediately picked up over 400 contacts, calendar info etc. And that was as I was leaving the Apple store. There have been problems. Apple bit off more than they could chew, I believe, but they gave users, 3 months of access. Apple tries, it seems to me, to take care of their customers. That is more than I can say for much of the IT industry. I have had little problem with MobileMe except for the startup, when it went down. I have since upgraded and hope that it gets better. Apple seems to work hard to make their products fulfill what they have promised.
For me, email, calendar, photos (from iphoto and iphone), backup (which is slow, because, primarily of my net speed), and contacts, all work great. That, tied together with a great program like Omnifocus, and things are good. I have to give them a solid review, because, while they did choke a bit, they seem to be moving along quite nicely now.

Summary: My Experience
Comment: I've been a user of .Mac ever since it was called iTools and was free. When the transition to Mobile Me occurred, I experienced some mail outages, but my iDisk, which hosts a few web sites, never failed. After letting things settle down for a few weeks, I spent some time weeding through the contacts on both my Macs, synched them, and then set them to automatic synching. Now any time I add, delete, or change a contact, a bookmark, or a calendar on either machine, the change is quickly reflected on the other. For the first time it's practical for me to have the same information on both machines and not have to think about it.
Apple certainly had a difficult time rolling our MobileMe, but at this point it's working all right for me and is pretty cool.
Except it was stupid for Apple to cancel iCards.

Summary: OUCH!
Comment: I have been a .Mac member since 2001 and an Apple loyalist since 1988. MobileMe is one of the worst releases of software in Apple's history. This is up there with Apple's old operating system version 6.0.6, on 10/05/90, where someone forgot to include AppleShare in the final build! (Apple corrected the problem the next day with a release of 6.0.6) I wish Apple was as responsive to their blunders as they have been in the past. My advise... wait if you can. If you can't wait, BACKUP YOUR DATA before using!

Imagine running beautifully designed, easy-to-use Apple applications on your PC. At me.com, you can check your email, manage your contacts and calendar, share photos, and store documents. The applications are so intuitive and clutter free that me.com could become your new desktop. On a PC, MobileMe works seamlessly with the applications you use every day. You can use Outlook, Outlook Express, and Windows Contacts on XP or Vista. MobileMe automatically pushes your email, contacts, and calendars ? and even your Safari or Internet Explorer bookmarks ? to your other computers, iPhone, and iPod touch. If you have more than one PC, use MobileMe to keep email, contacts, calendars, and bookmarks the same on all of them. If you have a Mac and a PC, they can share the same information. MobileMe will keep your computers, iPhone, and iPod touch in sync and up to date. Do everything you need to do on every device you own. MobileMe works with Mail, Address Book, and iCal on a Mac; Microsoft Outlook on a PC with Windows XP or Vista; and the built-in applications on your iPhone or iPod touch.
