I am one of those stuck with ie6 at work just figured a work around. Here is the process:
- Find a PC with firefox or download firefox to any PC.
- Find the the file "Mozilla Firefox" in program files.
- Copy entire file to a USB Flash drive.
- Create shortcut to firefox executable outside "Mozilla Firefox" but still on your USB drive for ease of use.
- Plug your USB Flash Drive into any PC, open the drive, click on the executable firefox shortcut and viole', you are now running firefox from your USB drive on your work computer without downloading firefox to their systems!

You now have full access to mobileme's features since ie7 does still have compatibility issues.


What do you all think! :D

Great idea, but I would get the sack for doing that

Ever heard of Portable Firefox (http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable)?
