Thanks so much for featuring CloudBerry Explorer in your blog!
Thanks for the tips. I’be been looking for a client to run Amazon S3 on my iPhone and the OpenS3 that you referred me to, which is a service run by smestorage.com works great. Very slick for an iPhone web application. It seems from their blog that these guys also have an iPhone App Store version out soon. I’ve been actually pretty impressed with their product. I’m not sure whether you knew when you were doing the review, but I signed up and started using their windows tooling also. It really is slick. It has a vritual drive like Jungle Disk and also a sync centre for automated sync and it has some toolbar plug-ins for Outlook, MS Office and Open Office. Best of all it is free !
