File stores like this have been pretty common place for a long time now actually -- systems like Freenet, WASTE, etc. Interesting to see someone stepping up and delivering a consumer-friendly experience on top of such technology. It's incredibly useful but reliant on a healthy network of peers. A plug-in-and-forget solution with good clients that integrate well into the ecosystem of devices we use today, I think, is very clever. I'd prefer to see something open-source but this is definitely a step in an interesting direction. Personally I limit my use of "cloud," services because I don't trust other people hosting things like my contacts list, calendar appointments, etc. I do see the benefit and convenience of such services though and if this device/service is capable of synchronizing more of that data from my applications between my devices I would buy into it in a heartbeat. I hope the kickstarter goes well and this thing takes off (or something similar... again, open source is preferable).
