FTP for PPC: W?BIC!
Posted by Pat Logsdon in "ARTICLE" @ 07:00 PM
"ShareIt FTP, as the name implies, is a fully functional FTP server that runs on your Pocket PC. It allows you to log onto your Pocket PCs file system from any FTP-enabled browser or dedicated FTP program through a network connection. Assuming you've assigned the appropriate permissions, you can transfer, rename, and even delete files. With the low cost of a Pocket PC compared to a laptop or desktop system, you can allocate a Pocket PC for a small FTP server, either permanently or temporarily, with greater return on investment."
Pocketnow has posted a review of this intriguing piece of software, which really pays homage to the "Why? Because I can!" (W?BIC!) philosophy. In addition to being just plain neat, it also has a number of practical applications that would be useful for a consultant or teacher.
Is this something you'd find useful?
