First, not sure where this is supposed to go.
I have a simple question though. Does anyone know if we will have the option of having a .mac or .me email address or will it only be .me? If the latter, would buying an account before July 11th allow me to have a .mac address versus a .me address?

I moved this to applications, which is where the .mac/mobile me stuff usually goes.

If you buy before MobileMe goes live, you'll have a .mac email address and will have the option of using [email protected] or [email protected] after it is released.
Watch the tutorial video; it lays all of that out.

Thanks. I wasn't sure.

Thank you. Since I would rather have a .mac address, I will probably pick one up this week.

The day after the MobileMe announcement, I talked with a .mac service agent via chat. My questions were regarding the use of mac.com for email addresses and web links. For current .mac members, they will have the option to use either.
That prompted a second question, "so will that still be an option for members signing up after MobileMe launches?" Her response, "Looks like both addresses will work, even after the transition. Anything sent to either @mac.com or @me.com will end up in your same mailbox."

This reminds me of when Netscape mail was finally transferred to aim.com instead of netscape.net. All mail that is sent to either address still ends up in the same inbox. (I'm trying to get my mom to use her .Mac address, but she's been using Netscape mail for the last 8 years)
