Setting up Find my iPad?

So I did some searching and found this:

http://www.apple.com/ipad/find-my-ipad-setup/

Which looks easy enough, but it doesn't say anything about paying for MobileMe or anything.

I remember reading when Find my iPhone came out that it was free for anyone to use, you just had to enable it on the iPad.

So does this mean I have to make a MobileMe account? Can you have a MM account and not pay for MM service?


To sum things up, I want to setup Find my iPad but not pay for MobileMe (if that's possible).

 

Perfect thanks.
