Reet.... is there a Dropbox app that actually syncs like the pc version of dropbox?

the last time i tried it there was 2... the official one which was like the web interface and another one which would download the docs before opening...

or is there something else similar that is free?

ta peeps...
 
If you want to sync data wirelessly between your Amdroid phone and Windows PC, I think a great

app for that is SyncBox. It can transfer files and folders directly from the phone to PC or

vice-versa using WiFi. So this is fast (faster than Dropbox because of WiFi), and safer. For

example: if you sync your Pictures folder on your phone to the PC's Pictures folder, and set the

sync direction to Phone to PC, and you take a picture on your phone, that picture will

automatically be copied to the PC.

There are tow versions of SyncBox (or Wifi Dropbox):
Lite (free): supports only 1 folders and its subfolders to sync, ad enabled, and slower

Pro ($2.99): supports unlimited folders, fast, ad free, a lot of options can be set.

In order to make the app run, you have to download the client app (for your Android Phone), and a

server app for your PC.
