make sure you set your phone up for it. settings -> mail, contacts, and calendar -> your .mac/mobile me account -> set options.

however, its currently not as instantaneous as they advertised in the keynote. but i say give it a week for MM to start working 100% and it will be instant.

Don't worry about it. I'm not getting any kind of synchronising at all.

Example. I created two new entries in iCal ... they only showed up on MobileMe after I'd quit the application. Still nothing on my iPhone though. Been waiting far longer than I should have. It's obvious that it's just not working.

I'm having this same problem. When I check iTunes it says my Calendars are being pushed from MobileMe. I think that MobileMe is not working as advertised yet.

I'm finding that I have to manually sync my computer with MobileMe. For example, if I create an event on my computer it doesn't automatically sync with MobileMe and hence my iPhone. But if I manually sync MobileMe and my computer, the event will quickly appear on my iPhone. Conversely, if I create an event on my iPhone, it quickly goes to MobileMe, but not my computer. It only shows up on my computer after I manually sync it. Syncing my iPhone with iTunes does not solve the problem.

Hopefully, this will work itself out shortly.

As soon as I finally got my iPhone activated after 7 hours yesterday and I added my MobileMe account my contacts, calendars, and email were all there within seconds. I was very pleased with how well it worked. Considering I wasn't home to sync and I had all my contacts with me without having to sync.

I'm not getting any push on/from my mac!
Whats hilarious is that after syncing for about an hour, Outlook on my PC only shows about 1/8th of my contacts and no calendars at all!

I added my new work schedule last night in iCal and within a minute I would say it was online via the MobileMe Apps. I am sure things are not running as fast as they would like them to but they are still working out all the kinks in the system. I would just give it time and patience. Apple will get it working, they strive on quality and that is what I like about them.

Contacts pushed for me... took about a minute for it to appear on my phone.

Make sure you have your MobileMe/.Mac settings on your Mac set to Sync Automatically.
