After numerous complaints Apple has been forced to fix over 27 bugs in Mobile Me after user complained of data-transfer and storage allocation problems as well as logging in and out issues. However instead of announing the upgrade to the Mobile Me service Apple chose to only post the news on a Mobile Me support page with some users claiming that the Company was seriously embarrased by the “poor quality of their software”.
Steve Jobs in in an e-mail sent to employees said: “The launch of MobileMe was not our finest hour. MobileMe was simply not up to Apple’s standards and it clearly needed more time and testing. There are several things we could have done better.”
