Removing the MobileMe icon from the menu bar in Leopard

Fortunately, holding the Command (Apple) key and dragging the icon to the desktop should detach and remove it.

Greg, I’m a menu bar clean-freak, so I love having full-control over my menu bar. I’ve found that the iSync Preferences has an option to do the same thing - http://blog.gingergeek.com/2009/06/how-to-remove-the-isync-mobileme-icon-from-menu-bar/
