DataCase Turns Your iPhone Into a Wireless Storage Device
Posted 13 August 2008 @ 9am in Applications
A new app called DataCase, retailing for $6.99 at the iTunes App Store, turns your iPhone or iPod touch into a wireless storage medium accessible by any other devices on a local wireless network. You can use the app to set up a drop box on the iPhone/iPod touch, or you can move files in either direction back to/from a computer.
There is no additional software or server requirement for this application. If you are using a Mac, it works directly with the Finder and Bonjour - appearing immediately on the accessible server list. Files moved to the handheld devices can be viewed without a desktop computer. PC users don’t have the same level of integration — Windows users must follow specific instructions to access the drive. DataCase also supports FTP file transfers.
DatCase supports a plethora of spoken languages and offers some level of security by allowing you to create multiple volumes (up to 16) and then control access to these volumes. While a variety of audio and video files can be transferred to these drives, playback is limited to media that the iPhone OS supports.

This is an excellent application. It integrates seamlessly with Finder, is quick and delivers exactly what it claims. I sent a message to the developers suggesting that support for iWork documents be added and received a quick reply indicating that this was on their agenda for a future revision. This bodes well for the future of this application.
