John,
I appreciate your common sense. Rome wasn't built in one day, and all
those impatient people that are trying to test things out before they
are established, just make things worse. "Make haste slowly" is
applicable here, too.

I tried this several ways, you are right email is certainly getting
the nod first from Apple, and I guess it should. I tried four
additional test (eating up Apple's bandwidth, think how many others
are also doing this). The iPhone would get the MobileMe email
somewhere between 9 to 11 seconds, the Mac email would be well over a
min., sometimes I quit the timing and hit "get mail" and it would be
there. I then changed the pref. in Mail to check ever 1 min. and
tried again, this time because of the timing of my Mac the email hit
the Mac before the iPhone, so indeed the PUSH is not instant yet.
Remember Lee said that they were going to have to work out all the
bugs, and can you image the demand on their servers!!! Last night I
upgraded my iPhone to ver. 2.0 and this was a looooong process, now
multiply that by even half the six million owners of the old iPhone
then throw in several hundred thousand of the new iPhones being added
and I bet Steve is cracking the whip and several guys have had NO
sleep since Friday.
Once the madness slows hopefully they will get this to working just as
promoted, I added an event to a calendar last night to test (eating up
Apple's bandwidth, think how many others are doing this) and it didn't
show up forever, this morning it is there so the triage has to go
first to email then the other apps will get the attention.

well, iPhone does seem to get the Push features.
But, as referenced from the linked article, Macs do not.
I'm not to worried about Push email to my Mac, as I can set Mail to
check every minute for new mail.
But it is ridiculous that Macs cannot take advantage of the "Push"
features of calendars and contacts.
It's only syncing at 15 minute intervals. THAT is not good, and not
what Apple advertised.
Hopefully something will fix this, but I'm not holding my breath.
It also seems that the MobileMe feature of emailing a link of files
stored on iDisk has been removed.
All of this smacks of iPhone centered development, leaving Macs
behind.

I just tried this. I sent myself an email using MobileMe and I
sent
myself an email using my Aye.net. The MobileMe hit the iPhone
almost
before I could get my hands off the keyboard, the Aye.NET has yet to
hit the iPhone and as I send this I have waited at least five min.
To get true PUSH we will need to begin using the Apple servers for
email.

so, it looks like Mobile Me (for desktop stuff) is not actually
Push,
but really just syncing on a 15min interval (which is too long if
you
ask me).
Definitely not the instant Push that they advertise.
