Not that I have an iDevice or a Mac, but it would be interesting if they have iCloud support for save games ACROSS devices. I know some people with a Mac and an iPad and syncing saves between the two would be a nice feature.

There really isn't much reason to save to the cloud without being able to play across platforms.

There is a reason, which is backup. If you delete an app, your saved games will also be gone. With iCloud support, they'll still be there. But I agree, across device save games is the most important use of iCloud saving.

This was fairly obvious considering the already announced iPad version.

That's not mine!
