On the 3rd day of iPhone Apps,
MyTechOpinion blogged to you…
Take your files anywhere
With Dropbox you can store & share!
About Dropbox:
Do you ever email yourself a document, just so you could access it on another computer? You may want to check out Dropbox, it’s a lightweight app that syncs files between computers and even your iPhone. To me, it’s become one of those apps that I can’t do without. I switch between my desktop, laptop and iPhone often. And there are certain files in each of those locations. That’s when I rely on Dropbox.
Getting started with the app is really straightforward. Create your free account, and claim your free 2 GB of space. Then go to Dropbox.com and install the software on each of your computers. Also visit the App Store and download the DropBox application for your iPhone. That’s it, now just drop a file into the folder and voila…it will sync to your other Dropbox enabled devices.
Why we like Dropbox:
Dropbox is a simple solution to a real challenge we have with files in multiple locations. For those of you that work in teams, try using Dropbox to share and collaborate key files. Because Dropbox stores a copy of your files on their secure server, you’ll always have the most current version of a document with file recovery for accidental deletion. If you need more than the 2GB of space, check out their Pro plan s starting at $9.99/month.
Dropbox also features a public folder for sharing files with outside users. Each file in this public folder will let you link directly to them.
Cost
2GB = Free
50GB = $9.99 /month
100GB = $19.99 /month

Dropbox, and Home Value Pro, are definitely two I can't live without. For Honorable Mention, I also use Evernote, Dragon Dictation and Say It Mail It on a daily basis.
Thanks for putting these together guys – looking forward to more!
Jeremy…c'mon dude, do you really use that page of home value pro or is that a shameless plug for getting prospects???
I think dropbox is a good tool and also dragon dictation.
Shameless plug? Not at all! I like that I can pull up the data and show it to a client right there, with the disclaimer that we're going to look at the market data straight from MLS for a more accurate picture. But it's a great stop gap to say "here's what we're looking at right now", and avoids having to say "I don't know".
