Apple Refunds Disgruntled MobileMe Customers

Several days ago, Apple unveiled it's highly-anticipated iCloud service at the company's WWDC keynote presentation. Alongside this announcement came another - that MobileMe would cease to be in one year's time. Fortunately for MobileMe subscribers, Apple is offering a variety of different refunds.
First, if you took out a new subscription or renewed within 45 days of this article's publication, you'll get a full refund. Furthermore, Apple will give you a full refund if you have an unused activation code. However, if you do not fall into this category, don't worry - because Apple will still give you a "pro-rated refund" depending on when you submit the request.
This means that you could use MobileMe right up until iCloud's release and still get a refund, which is great.
However, if you choose to apply for a refund before iCloud launches (in fall), you'll lose your MobileMe services immediately. Additionally, you'll have to re-sign-up for iCloud later this year, possibly losing your desired @me.com email address.
For a thorough breakdown of MobileMe refunds, check out Apple's support article. And let us know what you're planning on doing with your MobileMe subscription in the comments!
