airsharing Air Sharing: Free Over the Air File Sharing App for iPhone/iPod Touch

Air Sharing is a free file sharing iPhone & iPod Touch app available for only two weeks (until September 22) as part of an introductory offer (regular price is $6.99). I’ve used it briefly and its pretty impressive. If you own an iPhone, you know that you can’t really use it to store personal files, but this app enables you utilize the wifi to connect to your phone and upload files. Search for it at the Apple App Store. So far with 454 reviews, it has a super high rating of 4.5/5 stars.
