Dropbox File and Document Sharing

If you want more seamless and easier-to-use file sharing, try the Dropbox app. You will
need to install the Dropbox software on both your computer (PC or Mac) and your
DROID.
At the time of publishing, Dropbox was a free application and service for up to 2 GB
(gigabytes) of storage. If you want more storage space, you will have to pay a monthly
fee. 50 GB of storage costs $9.99 per month, and 100 GB of storage costs $19.99 per
month.
TIP: You can also use Dropbox as a backup service for your important files. If your DROID or
computer crashes, you will still have a backup copy of your files in your Dropbox account on that
company's servers.
