My excitement can hardly be contained in regards to this application…  you guessed it.  CloudFiles for Windows Mobile has just received another substantial update on it’s trek to version 1.0 status.  Version 0.9 beta, released today, is now available.  When logging in using CloudFiles on your Windows Mobile device, you will automatically be notified of the update and prompted to download the new version.  If you haven’t already checked it out, do so here.  I suspect we’re getting really close to version 1.0!

Version 0.9

• New:
- We are excited to introduce Commandline-Support for uploading & downloading files to/from dropbox using Commandline-Arguments!
• Example for downloading a file:
”CloudFiles.exe” -pw:password -d “public/Testfile.txt” “\My Documents” 
=> Downloads the file “Testfile.txt” to “\My Documents”
• Same for uploading:
”CloudFiles.exe” -pw:password -u “\My Documents\TestFile.txt” “public”
=> Uploads TestFile.txt to your public folder
 
Optionally, you can use ‘-s’ to suppress the final “Download/Upload complete”-message, and ‘-o’ to overwrite existing files without warning
• Fix:
- Samsung OMNIA: Picture upload now possible
- Some few, small fixes

Sometimes at JAMM we have great backstage discussions around the water cooler, you know, when Doug isn’t watching.  The transcript of one of these conversations, about Bill Maher’s proposition to let Apple reinvent America, as it has done with the computer, music player and phone, was just to good not to share.

In case you missed Maher’s comments, you can check them out in the video clip below, with your favorite JAMM writers’ comments following:

Enjoy…

Heather:  “Just funny.”

Mike:  “Maybe if they collaborate with Walmart… ya know, to make sure they have all the angles.”

Chris:  “Might be a good idea… discount taxes.”

Mike:  “Nice, never thought of that part, funny!”

Chris:  “Yeah; but you have to pay them HIS way… all other methods will result in the payment being denied, requiring a refile.”

Heather:  “As long as I don’t have to buy iTax points first inorder to pay my taxes…”

Chris:  “Please Heather, don’t be silly… of COURSE you will. How else do you think you’re going to be able to file in the first place??”

Doug:  “Uhm…there’s an app for that?? ”
