DataCase Turns Your iPhone into a Wireless Hard Drive

DataCase Turns Your iPhone into a Wireless Hard Drive
A new application available from the iTunes App Store promises to turn your iPhone or iPod touch into a powerful tool. DataCase transforms your Apple mobile device into a wireless networked hard drive that can be accessed from any Wi-Fi equipped computer, whether it runs OS X, Windows, or Linux.

DataCase is $6.99 and, once activated, allows other PCs on your wireless network to access two default folders on your iPod or iPhone. One is 'Drop Box,' a write-only folder to dump files for viewing, and the other a 'Shared Files' folder that allows you to read and write to files stored in the folder for sending and receiving data. DataCase also claims to be able to stream video from your iPhone/iPod to your PC.

Check out the video below to see it in action and head on over the The Unofficial Apple Weblog for a complete review. [From: TUAW]
