- Find My iPhone: While there had been initial confusion about which devices are compatible with the new free Find My iPhone service, Apple's setup page does appear to have offered correct information: A current-generation iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch is required for initial setup of the free Find My iPhone service, but once that it accomplished, and iOS 4.2-compatible device can access it. All users must update to the just-released version of the Find My iPhone iOS application in order to access the service through their devices.

I am so glad they finally offered this app for free. I tried the $99 MobileMe program a while back, but I didn't use any of the services. The only reason I wanted it was because I did lose my iPhone 3g. Thank you Apple....I keep loving your products more and more.
