Does it come with windows shell integration or do you have to use their shitty web based manager? Posted via RS Mobile |

Anyways, webOS users have gotten a similar (better) freebie from Box.net for a while now. My free 50GB accounts have 1GB and 2GB per file limits, not the 100MB per file limit they're offering iOS users.

how does this work? i downloaded the app on the iphone and registered a new account with Box. I then checked with icloud in settings but it said i still only have 5gb. This free 50gb storage is not with the official apple icloud right?

Complete garbage.
Markets itself as some iCloud / Dropbox killer cloud service with a much better/bigger '50 gig' storage.
Downloaded on iPad, singed up, all ready to cloud my files only to discover that you CANNOT UPLOAD from an iPad. Ok nvm, maybe a bug on the iPad app, downloaded on my phone/touch4. Clicked the upload icon, only able to upload from camera or camera roll. They conveniently placed a PDF file in you default folder to cock tease you into upgrading (to get desktop uploading maybe?)
Nothing more than flicker,photobucket,imageshack etc. don't waste your time.
