I've been using a trial of MobileMe for around 90 days now - they gave me extra time due to all the problems they had at the start.
Thankfully, service is now good - I have had no problems whatsoever in the last month or so.
I have noticed a few things:
* The webmail I don't use. I have Gmail and use Google to look after my company email accounts to so they are all IMAP. This syncs nicely across the web, Mail and iPhone. No need for MobileMe here.
* The Calendar and Contacts feature is actually extremely useful. It's one of those technologies that I lived without but now I've had it "just work"ing for a while I don't think I can go back to not having everything in seamless sync at all times. It is an incredibly useful service JUST for the instant sync of calendars and not having to worry about inputting something in iCal and not having it on your iPhone just before a meeting the next day.
So all in all, I recommend MobileMe if keeping organised without any hassle is a priority. If you're looking for a kick ass webmail service then this is probably not the best / there are equally good free alternatives.
Also, Things is a great iPhone app.
