Apple Unleashes All New MobileMe
This morning, Apple unleashed a completely redesigned me.com. Apple introduced an overhauled MobileMe Webmail system as well as a Find My iPhone App. The new interface reveals a new application switcher interface which replaces the row of icons that was previously used.
The new features include options for three-panel widescreen or a compact view, on-server processing rules, archiving, rich text formatting, and improved SSL. New features added since the beta include support for replying from multiple e-mail addresses for mail forwarded to your MobileMe account and improved junk mail filtering. Apple also says the new Mail has faster performance—in the time we've been using the beta, we would have to agree that it's definitely a lot snappier.
Complementing the new version of Mail, all apps have a slightly re-designed toolbar that matches the style introduced with the Mail beta. Additionally, Apple has added a new Mac OS X-style switcher for the various MobileMe apps. Clicking the MobileMe cloud icon on the far left of the toolbar—or using the the keyboard shortcut Shift-Esc brings up a panel of large icons for Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Gallery, iDisk, and Find My iPhone.
Following the recent release of iTunes Connect Mobile and Apple Store apps, Apple has also made an app called Find My iPhone. We thought that Find My iPhone app was a bit inappropriate with MobileMe services, however, since the universal iOS app can find both iPhones and iPads registered to your MobileMe account. The app will run on any iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad, and allow you to log in to your account to track a missing device, display a message on its screen, set the passcode lock, or wipe all its data.
