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.
