Push is even better then the manual start and sync via an App all the time... Like I said, forget the client and take the ActiveSync (Exchange) Protocol Build into the iPhone.

Since I'm only interested in keeping my agenda up-to-date over my 3 macs and possibly a future iphone, i feel that the 99$ for mobile-me/year is overdone. Fruux does all i want really. Gr8 product, esp. for a beta, and it's free! @ Apple: I was never gonna pay 99$/year anyway: I don't need an @me address, or your storage. I just want to sync. If Fruux makes that happen: Let it be my choice for syncing. By banning them from your store i'm better off with a touch-phone that runs andrioid, and you'll sell an iPhone less. So Apple: Grow up and get over yourself. Today my trial for Mobile Me expired.

You'll be lucky with your iPhone app IMO. I'd abandon it honestly. Apple would behave like this.

It's very unlikely at this point that Apple will allow anything that competes with their paid services. Are there any numbers about how many people have jailbroken iPhones? A gut feeling tells me that only a minuscule part of purchasers have ever heard of this possibility and would have a) the inclination and b) the technical knowledge to do this. But this was to be expected after the rejections from the previous months. I honestly don't know what you expected...

But you need scale and think beyond Apple! Following recomendations: * iphone client via cydia - you don't really need Apple for distribution of a supirior product. Let the market decide.Even better, let the market develop the client Open Source * Develop a S60 client or better SyncML interface - massive differentation with all handsets * Develop an Outlook Client - and you have the leading product in the market * Go viral with other clients, spread fast and vigorously If you need support planning an agressive expansion strategy a.s.o. send me a mail.
