Tech Flops that lived in Notoriety
Steve Jobs will always regret for prematurely launching MobileMe web service. The idea was to brilliantly sync mail, calendars, files and photos between your computer, iPhone and the web. Not only was it over priced, but the original version barely worked. Online storage was too slow; file sharing was missing and the calendar stand nowhere. The launch of the service also played their part towards this disaster as the pages were slow, the servers were constantly down, the push messaging promised did not work and a number of trial users found their credit cards charged too early.
