Story: Jobs admits Apple slipped up on MobileMe

mobileme still broken

PBS talks as though it was just the launch that was the problem. MobileMe is still broken and so I hope they are not going to "move on".

Really getting sick of doing Apples Beta testing for them and paying for the privellege.

If your company is enterting an industry that it has no experience surely you would get someone with relevant experience in as a consultant!? Both the iPhone and MobileMe feel like they were never tested outside of Apple offices before launch with bugs and issues you would only expect in beta. Some faults are there through technical issues or high demand but many are due to bad design which is inexcusible.

As long as Apple fanboys keep paying for unfinished and broken products and just accept that they have to wait for an update or the next hardware iteration then Apple have no real incentive to test their products prior to launch. They could re-release the Newton and as long as it had the Apple logo or Steve jobs face people would lap it up - madness.
