Files on OVI.com unlike photo sharing NOT free


OVI, Finnish for "door" started operation recently. It allows for excellent photo/video sharing with no limits other than the size of the uploaded file, which is 100 MB, a generous start.

Now even file storage has made it to OVI, allowing users to upload/share/send files from PC or their phone. This service is not free, though and Nokia will charge _something_ for 10GB of space. Also, Mac users are left behind, the service requires a PC with Windows, they state.

OVI photo sharing site renders nicely on Nokia E90, with an option to resize media to full screen. The whole service reminds a bit of flickr.com, too, which is not for the bad. We like it, and we do not like the new file sharing option with no free option. Google docs or box.net may be a better option.
