Imagine sitting down at any Mac, and having not only your profile, but all your apps and their settings and preferences available too.
I'm pretty sure that's the way it's going to work already. No need for MobileMe, apps can be downloaded multiple times from the app store - provided the machine you're at has been authenticated against your Apple account.

You can install Mac apps on every Mac you use and even download them again. This is especially convenient when you buy a new Mac and want to load it with apps you already own.

Is that what you have in mind?
