Where is everyone in this thread??!?!?

So does the find my iphone thing only work with a mobile me account which you have to buy? Are there any other security alternatives for if your iphone gets stolen?

It only works with mobile.me - and quite brilliantly I must say. Doubt if there is anything similar available atm.

So I would have to buy an account? What else will mobile.me give me?

So I used the pwnage and it worked yay!

I have Cydia now and also Icy, is this bad cause I read that icy was screwed up?

I never use Icy - its not being developed by Rip-Dev anymore as he is withdrawing from the iPhone scene but the source is available if someone wants to take it over.

Calendar that syncs with your iPhone and Mac - Contacts that sync with your iPhone and Mac - including contact photos.(I never have to worry about backing up my iPhone contacts).
eMail that uses push to the iPhone. A virtual disk (iDisk)which you can access from your iPhone or Mac- a photo gallery which has syncs to iPhoto and has quite a nice interface - of course no advertising - the ability to publish web pages to your web server on mobile.me - I might have missed something - check it out http://www.apple.com/mobileme/.

Nope. But Exchange, IMAP and POP is supported. You can also get push mail on an Exchange account, MobileMe, GMail and Yahoo.

Been the best selling phone in the world for like the past year or two (regardless of the high price), so Apple must be doing something right

gpush is pretty good for gmail notifications, but i recently installed growl which is great, can send just about any kind of push notification you want to the iphone.
