I agree completely. Apple's stance on the web is confusing. On the one hand they do make an excellent browser, so they must understand that it's important to their customers. Yet on the other hand I feel that iCloud is them finally saying that they will not participate in the web economy. I don't know how consumers will react to this. I don't know if the convenience of signing up for iCloud because you have an iPhone is more important than the inconvenience of not being able to check your mail anywhere. It doesn't work for me though. If I'm shopping for a new computer or a new phone and I have to stop and consider whether or not it is compatible with my email provider; it's time to ditch the email provider.
