Apple's Find My iPhone / iPad service now free, doesn't require MobileMe

We'd been sort of hoping Apple would just make MobileMe a completely
free service, but it looks like we're taking baby steps instead: Find
My iPhone / iPad is now free for iPhone 4, the iPad, and the fourth-
gen iPod touch running iOS 4.2.1. As with the paid feature, you'll be
able to locate your device on a map, lock it, display a message, play
a sound, or remotely wipe your data from any browser or the updated
iOS app, which should presumably go live sometime today along with iOS
4.2.1 itself. Like we said, it's a baby step, but hey -- we never say
no to free.
