The marketing name you will be hearing is MobileMe, instead of 'at
me', or dot me.
There MAY be a charge for some Touch owners, depending on when they
bought it, and what software they currently have.
The new software version is referred to as Ipod Touch software ver.
2.0, where before it was 'January update', or something along those
lines.
The upgrade cost $10.00, but allows many new apps, alot of them free,
at the new app store in iTunes.

Is Apple going to up the price of the .me account?

Hey Harry!
Apple has dropped the name of the online service, "dot mac", and
simply changed the name to "dot me". This means you (if you had a
dot
mac account) now have an e-mail address that ends in dot me.com.
Instead of my e-mail address reading as "derbywiz.mac.com, it can now
be [EMAIL PROTECTED] They are letting the .mac.com address exist
along
side the .me.com addresses, so you don't have to change anything.
The
new dot me service has 20 gigs (instead of 10 gigs) of online storage
for back-up/ website storage, etc... And they say it will allow
changes from one device, like your Touch, or the first gen iPhone, or
the new iPhone, or your computer, to synch with the mystic magical
internet cloud and instantly- with minimal delay- all your devices
will recognize the change and all will be synched.
Fear not - change is good.
