Will Google Sync Supplant MobileMe?
Macworld’s Dan Moren with a clear eyed evaluation of Google’s new iTunes-free contact and calendar sync as it relates to MobileMe:
It’s the kind of thing that would look like a shot across Apple’s bow if it weren’t for the fact that the two companies are apparently the best of pals—Google CEO Eric Schmidt is still sitting on Apple’s board, and it’s not as if the built-in Google search bars in the iPhone and desktop versions of Safari suddenly vanished into thin air.
I’m sitting with my MacBook Pro, my iPod Touch and an MSI Wind hacked to run OS X seriously considering this.
