Folks I don't know what is happening on your side of the world but here what
I get is this comment:
"Bienvenidos a (Welcome to) MSN Hotmail !!!
The email address for the rest of us."
And that is not good :(
We are trying to figure if we can make kind of pressure on Apple, so we are
thinking on a deal like this:
Basic .mac account:
2MB email only account for free
Pro .mac account:
what we saw for : 49$ (already users) / 100$ next year
We are thinking that maybe if all mac users, specially those for who 100$
would be a little to much to pay because we have an economy that is not
helping at all, and if we plan supporting 10.2 (that would be another 129$)
for many people in LA that is a month income (230$)....
(unless Apple is planning to just keep 4 countries in mind : US / Japan /
Switzerland and Germany - and the rest will be denied)
... so if all of us try to focus on the same goal, like a 2MB email only
account, maybe we can make Apple re-think on their plan.
2.2 million mac.com user * 49$ is a really cool number, better if is *100$,
but we hard believe that the number will go to less than 700.000 or less,
still good number in $ but very bad image for Apple
To sad, we were very PROUD of ours mac.com accounts.
I don't know if something else happened on the keynote but I can tell you
that this is the only subject on LA lists right now. :(
Hope we can turn this out in benefit of all mac.com fans and all the mac
users around the WORLD.
