Apple has posted details of the iPad’s integration into its MobileMe service. The $99/year subscription service will offer push email, calendar, contacts, and bookmarks syncing on the iPad; the company’s current iDisk application for the iPhone and iPod touch is listed as compatible with the iPad, although no new iPad-specific version is mentioned on Apple’s dedicated webpage. In addition, the iPad will be compatible with the “Find My iPad” service, which allows users to remotely locate their iPads, play sounds and/or display messages; if the iPad is believed to be completely lost, the service also offers a Remote Wipe feature that can be used to remotely lock it with a passcode, or remove all of the users’ data.
