Glide Promises To Make Any Phone An iPhone - Yahoo! News

"On Thursday, media sharing service TransMedia plans to release its Glide Sync and Glide Mobile software for Mac users, finally fulfilling its promise to make desktop files available across different operating systems and devices.
'Mac users will be able to access all of their Macintosh files, whether they're documents, photos, music, videos, contacts, calendars, bookmarks, from their cell phones,' says TransMedia chairman and CEO Donald Leka. 'Effectively, we're turning every major cell phone on the market into more than an iPhone, before the iPhone comes out. From that phone, not only will you be able to access everything, but you will also have significant capabilities to edit, manipulate, and create files on that phone and then have it reverse synchronize back to your Mac.'
In other words, Glide gives supported phones music and video playback capabilities that are comparable to those of a video iPod. The difference is that files are streamed from Glide's hosted service instead of residing on the mobile device."
