Goodbye .mac

i have switched.
apple is no longer hosting my site. after several days of not having comments on my blog and then today not even being able to post to my blog i have decided to leave them. i will still use the idisk and other some of the other features that were not effected by the mobileme switch, but my blog is moving. I have no dought that i will probably have other problems in the future but for now this will do. its funny that i had just switched to mac and now there are all kinds of problems. whoa, i am getting ahead of my self. i should say that i still love my computer and i will not be willing to give that up any time soon, but i am very frustrated with the way apple handled, or didn’t handle the massive switch over this last week.
this is the email i sent to apple regarding my problems with iweb/mobile me.
What version of iWeb are you using to publish to MobileMe?
2.0.3
When did you first notice this issue?
when you lunched mobile me.
What happens, including any error messages, when you try to publish your site?
well it started out for a few days that i would get a publish error message after trying to publish. then it move up to not being able to publish at all because it would tell me that i had to sign in to .mac while i was signed into .mac. it has been very frustrating and i am very upset as a new mac user to have this happen to me after having all of my friends tell me how great mac/apple have been. Just as a side note even they are very upset with apple right now. I think we would all be a little less upset if apple would let us know that they even acknowledge there is a problem and that they were doing something about it. so far we have heard nothing. I have been researching other hosting options and will probably not renew my .mac/mobilme account. my wife has a trial .mac account and when hers expires we will find her an alternative as well. if this problem is resolved we may stay but at this point i feel as though i have wasted my money and time on your services.
