Mozy announces sync apps for desktop, iOS and Android

Desktop-to-cloud backup provider Mozy has announced that it will soon release Mozy Sync, a file synchronization service like Dropbox or SugarSync. The company has also stated that Android and iOS apps will be available and that an invite-only beta is underway. You'll have to be a current MozyHome customer to be considered as a tester.

What's not spelled out is how the service will work. Will Mozy Sync be a value-add for Mozy's recently re-priced backup service? Will Mozy Sync be its own beast and require a separate subscription? We're hoping to receive early access and more details soon, and we'll fill in the blanks as soon as we can.
