Hi Andrew,

Have you tried Zumodrive.com. It is similar to Dropbox, and works on Macs, Linux, Windows, and they have a snazzy iPhone app.

It has the idea of linking an existing directory(s) to the cloud, which means you have both backup and fast access.

Thanks for sharing your experience,

Craig

Ps. There is also jungledisk.com which I also use for offsite backup.

Does this mean Phanfare's new pricing will be based on usage? Meaning, a base fee, then a per GB storage cost? Something in line with Amazon's $0.15 (15 cents) per GB/month for storage (maybe ?? cents/GB of traffic?)

Will customers be able to archive Images, as well as display them in albums? I use JungleDisk to have off site storage of all my Images, but only want to share some of them. It would also be the same with video or even audio (though you aren't in that market).

Funny, I just (last week) picked up that body, to replace my old Canon 10D! Though, I went with 2 different lenses

Canon EF-S 17-85MM f4-5.6 IS USM, rating 7.6, about $450
Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM, rating 8.8, about $520

(So lenses aren't as good as your suggestion. But, they cover the whole range.)

I would have used B&H, but their shopping cart got all confused, and I couldn't get it to start again, Amazon worked well. Price was about the same.

Keep up the good work on Phanfare. Can't wait to see what features your new Pro (Premium?) will have!
