I'm sure it's a fluke but it does raise a point: Apple is missing an opportunity to make MobileMe a really strong companion to Macs & iPods. They could build it into a comprehensive online backup/syncing tool. Buy a new Mac or iPhone, plug it in, download your data in the background (stream on demand, tie into Bonjour for first backup if both machines are on the same local network) Considering storage is cheap it seems like a no lose scenario for Apple. Some companies are getting by offering huge amounts of cloud storage for far less than the cost of MobileMe is today.
