I have been slowing testing the stability and reliability of Mobile Me for the last 6 months. It is always difficult to go back to a program that has proved problematic in the past. But I had a one year subscription and even Apple deserves to have a bumpy software roll-out.

After six months of using calendar and address book things have been going remarkably well. The program has synced across all three computers and an iPhone.  My caveat, I have only used Mobile Me for my personal contacts and calendar. Also, I have not used mobile me for document management or email. 

The one thing I did discover was that using Onyx will wreak havoc on Mobile Me. I am sure if it is a bug that needs to be worked out or who needs to work it out. If you run Onyx, then open up your calendars, you may experience multiple repeated calendar titles (as many as five). I suppose that is better than having them disappear. I am not married to Onyx, but it is a nice program to keep things clean, zippy and spiffy. But I am liking the idea of having a constantly synced calendar and address book. Now we are in search of a new tweaking/optimization program.
