MobileMe (not iCloud) syncing with iOS 5?

[jent]

I have a MacBook and MacBook Air both running Mac OS X Snow Leopard, and an iPhone 4 and iPad 1 running iOS 4. I'd like to upgrade the iDevices to iOS 5, but I'm not looking to jump to iCloud just yet, as I want to read up on it further. Not to mention, I don't plan on upgrading to Lion just yet, and I'm not sure what functionality I would lose if I used iCloud with the iCloud-incompatible OS X 10.6. Can I continue to use MobileMe to sync my Macs and iDevices even after I upgrade to iOS 5? Thanks!

Yes. I just migrated 4 iDevices and my Mac to iCloud today but was using MobileMe since updating to iOS 5 on Wednesday with no issues on any of the devices/Mac.
