Yesterday, French site Consomac.fr did some digging into the latest developer preview build of OS X Lion and found something interesting. Buried in the code are references to a service named called "Castle". Given the context of one of the mentions — "upgrade from MobileMe to Castle" — this led most to assume that the name referred to Apple's upcoming cloud service overhaul. We can now confirm that to be the case. As TUAW guessed , Castle is in fact the internal nickname of Apple's new service which many are now calling "iCloud" in the press (thanks to Apple's acquisition of that domain recently ), we hear.
