we all waited long for it , but now, IT IS REAL! Dropbox for Android has dropped and can be found in the market!
With dropbox you can sync files over multiple platforms, such as MacOS, iPhone OS, Android and windows...even OTA!

You'll get the extra 250 megs when you install the desktop software. Also when you view a file on your Droid it will save a copy in your dropbox folder on the sdcard. Pretty neat app!

Is there any way to work the system to get more referral credits. I could really go for that extra space :)

My only concern with this application is that they say the files are also synced on their website (web server).

Well, what if their server gets compromised? Said attack is than able to access a large numbers of files from people's personal computers (even if it is just downloading them).

Is there an option so that it doesn't sync with the website?

Just a thought.
