So this will run on RasPi? It seems like the next step is for someone to attach a NAS to a RasPi and make a "syncbox" -- a NAS which auto-syncs to the other NASes you've configured across the internet. For end users, they would get 2 and share a secret between them, then install one at 2 separate offices (or home and office), and any files dumped onto one NAS are replicated to the other. Basically Dropbox without file limits.

There's a Linux ARM binary, so ... maybe?

Would totally buy something like that that worked out of the box.

    Works globally, only ships within the US. That's awesome.

      Looking at this, it looks like a 1-stop sharing solution. Im assuming that when a user shares files from this device, the connection is routed from Transporter's servers to the users device, allowing the downloader to directly copy the users file. I wonder how replication between 2 devices would work...

        File transfers are peer to peer.

I have a Raspberry Pi setup as a NAS and media server (see http://www.naspberrypi.com/ http://www.naspberrypi.com/) and the first thing I did was download the Linux x64 version for my laptop and the ARM version for my NAS and I had them syncing in about 5 minutes. This is awesome. I'm going to ship another NASpberry Pi (along with an external hard drive that's already a clone of my existing backup drive) to my brother who lives on the other side of the country and completely replace my $100/year backup service with this.
