Air Sharing is the latest addition to the App Store for sharing and viewing files on your iPhone & iPod Touch. As the name says, the application allows you to share files through WiFi. You can mount your iPhone or iPod Touch as a wireless drive on any Mac, Windows, or Linux computer and share files between them. You can very easily drag & drop files between your iPhone or iPod Touch and your computers, view documents in many common formats. It works like DataCase and is as good except that it’s FREE for first two weeks of it’s release, making it even better. Air Sharing’s regular price is US$6.99. But For the first two weeks, Avatron Software is giving Air Sharing away for FREE! So don’t miss this special introductory offer which will end on the 2nd of September. Go grab you copy now from the App Store.
