@lindy My remark about Apple on Windows vs Microsoft on Mac OS X wasn't restricted to Mesh...the good work with Mesh by MS is just another example.

@Ocean

Something tells me you are lying. Would not be surprised.

It works great on my Mac. Cant get to it from work so that pretty much kills 90% of its use for me.

Drop box has more features, works with more OS'es, does not require an account to share but has a limit of 1gig.

@johnbaxter "Once again, Microsoft has proven that it is better at doing Mac OS X than Apple is at doing Windows." ???? Umm Apple does not offer anything like mesh. The closeset thing they have is iDisk, which is old technology, webdav/webshare stuff. Which IMO does not work great on any platform. Mesh is NOT webdav/webshare, nor is dropbox.

I read this week that ATT is testing monthly caps in the Reno area, 150gig for the top tier customers. All of the broadband companies are loving mesh, Xbox Live, PSN, Dropbox, MobileMe, Netflix online, Apple TV, Hulu, etc.

Throw it all into the cloud, get charged for it, hope the source stays up and pray its secure. Good times.

Okay I only made the above post to test and see if one of my posts actually made it up - I was going to post in the windows 7 running on an eee pc that I have Vista running on an Athlon XP 2500+ with 2 GB ram and it runs very smoothly, no issues at all (save for my logitech webcam that logitech won't write vista drivers for). So I'm not sure how people are unable to get satisfactory results using dual-core processors, newer chipsets etc.

OT: Every time I try to comment on a post, my comment isn't posted and it appears the thread is locked. This has happened to me about 4 times now. It's really annoying.

I've got it installed, but it really makes my device slow. I had such hope for it.

Took me a while to figure out as to why I couldn't get it to work on my PDA ( I later found out that my region settings on Windows Live was set to Puerto Rico ), but now it's working great!

It's not the most flashy program for WinMobile, but it has already replaced ActiveSync for me, and I love not having to go into a browser to use Mesh.

Too bad it wouldn't support a jail broken iPhone.

Cool, tried it again and it worked - nice.

I'm in the UK and I installed the client on my HTC Touch and signed in. It said I wasn't allowed add my mobile phone. :(

"Maybe someday it will work on an iPhone, or an I dreaming?"

You're dreaming. Apple won't allow it because they'd rather you pay for MobileMe$$.
