As a followup to "On .Mac, part 1 - Services", my hopes and wishes for
iSync to be released and offer a unique service over .Mac came true - somewhat. iSync is in
public beta form, and for some reason or another, much of the .Mac network went down for approximately three hours last night. Myself, and a number of other users, found ourselves locked out of registering machines with our .Mac accounts. Apple fixed the problem earlier today, and registration seemed to go well. Now I have the task in front of me to actually unify my Address Books and core calendars down to the unified and synchronized unit I've been craving.
