Good MobileMe deal?

[ThirteenXIII]

Not sure if this Okay to post, (if so feel free to remove/delete)

But for those who are looking to get a great deal on MobileMe and MobileMe Family Pack, as i was interested in getting the family pack and found an insane deal:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832110039
109.99 for the family pack.

79.99 for individual users.


Im wondering if this is a decent deal, considering theyre OEM, probably just activation?
Not sure what would entirely differ than the retail copy?

The retail pack doesn't have much more than the activation key anyway.

Anyway, the education pricing is cheaper (I believe $69), and it's $30 off the regular pricing if you purchase the mobile me package with a new Mac or iPhone.

Amazon.com actually has the single license for $63.46 and the family pack for $109.99.

On eBay you can find the family pack for around 90ish.

I would def go with either Amazon.com or the Bay. I just got an individual user license for $50.

As far as I can tell there isn't an education pricing anymore. I could be wrong.

That pricing has been yo-yoing for a few weeks now. I bought it at $69.99 a couple of weeks ago, then it went down 50¢, then back up to $79.99, now back down to $63.46. Really odd.

I don't know if it's an education discount or an "anyone" discount, but there is definitely an option to buy MM for $69 (single) or $119 (family) when you buy a new Mac.

That's for everyone and the deal has been since 2005 (if I remember correctly). We haven't been able to get education pricing on it for a few years.
