Answer :

answer:yes it already has converted as of July 11. Go to http://me.com and in the login just type in your login (no [at]me.com). You should be able to login with that. As for your email address it will work with both address tags but they may eventually phase out the ability to use the [at]mac.com tag (no word as to when though).
