We’ve just finished producing an introductory video, in partnership with the folks at AppShow.com. I highly recommend them if you are producing a video. They asked all the right questions, responded to our pig-headed opinions with grace, and created a video that I think gives a good high-level overview of Air Sharing Pro.
But please let us know what you think! Do you like it? Should it have been given a heavy-metal soundtrack? Is it too long or short? Too high-level or too detailed? Should we have done the voiceover with a fake James Earl Jones?

Liked the show, helped me decide to purchase.
Thanks
Hi. I just wanted to let you know that some components of your site are difficult to read for me, as I am color blind. I am a sufferrer of protanopia, but there are more varieties of color blindness that will also get difficulties. I can understand most of the website OK, and the areas I have problems with I can read by employing a special browser. Neverthless, it would be nice if you could bear in mind we color-blind folk while carrying out the next web page revamp. Many Thanks.
Colin, can you point to specific areas on our site that are difficult for you to see? I tried viewing our site, including the Support forum, with a protanopia color filter (at http://colorfilter.wickline.org/) and found it quite usable.
It is odd that one must buy an app to use the iPhone with its inherent file management capability which is disabled rendering the iPhone a straighjacket and then that is called a ‘feature’ !!! Isn’t it ironic that “jailbreaking” has become such a commonly understood term because of this major problem with the iPhone, which the vendors don’t breathe a word about until you’re caught in the glitzy ambush? This is the only application which makes the iPhone have any value to me. Can you be more specific about creation of folders for storing one’s files in one’s own folder structure? What are the limitations? Size of folder? Expandability of folder? i.e. all of the features the pc users take for granted.
I’m not sure what you’re asking here. In response to your questions:
>> Can you be more specific about creation of folders for storing ones files in ones own folder structure?
Not sure what you mean here. Each app on the iPhone is given a folder called a sandbox. It can only access files within that sandbox. To a user, the sandbox appears as a volume, like a disk. You can do the sorts of things within that disk that you can do in another disk or web volume.
>> Size of folder?
There is no limit beyond the amount of free space on your iPhone.
>> Expandability of folder?
I’m not sure what that means.
>> i.e. all of the features the pc users take for granted.
Certainly there are some features that PC users take for granted that we cannot support. For example, running an application that was compiled for a PC’s x86 processor. Or connecting to a USB device. Air Sharing is not intended to be a replacement for your PC. It is intended to be a replacement for an external removable disk drive, with the added advantage that it lets you view the documents stored in its sandbox, and (in the Pro version) can move files between its sandbox and other servers, including FTP servers, SSH servers (such as a Mac with Remote Login enabled), WebDAV servers, and so on.
Can you pose more specific questions? We’d be glad to help. But please either email support@email.com or visit our support forum at.
