MobileMe Status update: It still sucks!

"A product they would be proud of by christmas" they said, well its that month of the year and yet the MobileMe web interface still sucks majorly. Browsing the inbox, reading a message, composing a message, changing settings, editing the address book or adding photos to a gallery is a scary job because at any point the browser will just refresh, taking you back to the main mail screen. Not saving your settings or even the message you were working on, its just gone for you to start all over agin. I paid money for this service from one of the most creditable companies in the world and yet they deliver a product that makes Hotmail or Live Mail look impressive. Apart from messages not showing up in sent items (or not being sent at all) I have not been able to add photos to my web galleries from iPhoto, forcing me to use the web interface.

I have the setup the Apple developers dream of, an high spec mac portable, latest OS and version of Safari. MobileMe should work like a dream, like every other product they have released to date. From day one this service has not got any better.
