Now only if they launch an email service of their own and integrate Dropbox with it for stuff like attachments and we will have a potential GMail killer.
Wow. Just over a month ago they were posting their "Week 1 In Review," that was a fast acquisition!<p>This one is actually quite exciting I think though. They already have the product, but they need to scale like crazy. A company like Dropbox will help massively with that, and hopefully the service will grow without the Twitter-esque growing pains we're used to.<p>I'd far rather see these guys acquired by a company interested in keeping the product, than a company who just needs a talented team.
"Whether it’s your Dropbox or your Mailbox, we want to find ways to simplify your life." Great tagline! Synergies are even present at the brand level. :)
The funny thing is that I think Mailbox has put much care and ingenuity into their iPhone app than Dropbox has. The 2007 four tabs at the bottom UI is not the <i>best</i> way to browse your files.
