Been waiting for this. This makes it easier to share docs if I decide to pick up a windows phone or surface tablet.

just zip them into 99mb files. not like it takes any longer to do anything. but free 50gb of storage is hard to ignore for me. and i can make as many accounts as i want with that.

ha yeah saw that on Lifehacker. 100MB filesize limit though. I think I’ll be buying more Google Drive storage.

Nope, when Google Drive launched anything you uploaded Google had free grabs at. I’m asking if they changed the ToS away from that yet.

I wouldn’t be surprised, they already have the beta out for Office 2013, and the UI is extremely similar feeling to Skydrive/Outlook now.

What’s so seamless about the Drive APp? It works just like any other 3rd party app. Nothing special about it. And Microsoft gave 25GB free…before they switched up… now its 7GB free/more than Google.

Nobody went to windows os, so microsoft is trying to bring it to you through the android market.
So if apple brings their icloud to the android market, do they sue themselves?

Right. I never looked into it. I use social folders for syncing, but its not as fluid and painless as dropbox

You only get desktop syncing with their Business or Enterprise accounts. The business account requires a minimum of 3 users at $15 each = $45/month. No go on that..

Imo Box is better than Dropbox. I think theres an desktop app if you pay. If there is i think it probably beats dropbox

do they still claim rights to all your stuff you upload?
