Geek In Me

Apple’s Push-like MobileMe launch has been such a debacle that they’re now in damage control mode. As a result, some poor soul has been tasked by Steve Jobs to post status updates “every other day or so.” The first update is already revealing:

* Last Friday, 1% of MobileMe subscribers were affected by a “serious problem” with one of Apple’s mail server.
* Limited web access has been restored to those accounts but full access won’t be sorted until next week.
* Of these 1%, Apple admits to losing “approximately 10%” of the messages received between July 16 and July 18.
