Dropbox bringing file-syncing magic to Android and Blackberry
Dropbox, a file-storage service that's getting a lot of well-deserved hype for its desktop product and its iPhone app, is expanding to at least two new mobile platforms this year. Android and Blackberry users can look forward to syncing files from their phones to their Dropbox accounts in the near future. With 4 million users already onboard, expanding to new mobile devices could position Dropbox as the leader in the growing cloud-storage-and-syncing space.An email sent to current Dropbox users announced the two new clients, but didn't give a specific release date for the new "mobile magic." We haven't been able to dig up any more specific info about when you might be able to hold Dropbox in your hot little hands, but Kevin C. Tofel at JKonTheRun speculates that an announcement might be forthcoming at the Mobile World Conference later this month. I'm going to guess that's too soon, considering that Dropbox isn't done hiring Android developers yet, but we'll have to wait and see.

Great news...after the iphone, finally now moving to other mobiles. This is really one essential service for anyone who ever has to sync or move files between computers.
In case anyone wants to sign up for the service, you get 2gb of storage. But you can use the link here https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTQwMDM5NDY5 which will give you an extra 250mb for a total of 2.25gb.
