.Mac - anyone use it?

[Red10]

Seems quite good, what with the iDisk feature etc. £70 quid though...

Anyone have any opinions?

From what i can tell, it integrates well into Tiger, i think (hope) the iDisk facility is like the virtual drives in novell (XP) whereby it appears as a drive you can read and write to on the fly...

I use it.

1gb storage shared between email and iDisk.

Virex and Backup are included as well.

Is it worth the £80 per year, though?

Quite expensive for what it is, could you not use a pen drive ?

It's a bit neater and it has other features too, just wondering if these were worth the extra cash though...

I've signed up for the 60 day trial and am just trying it out now...
It's really good, the iDisk appears in the Finder tray, as if it were a local drive, allowing drag and drop. Sync option plus backup is there too...
