Both Microsoft as well as Dropbox have just announced their partnership that concerns Office integration as well as online storage, but there is more than that that meets the eye. It seems that Windows Phone owners will be pleased to hear that there will be an official Dropbox app that is making its way to their beloved mobile operating system platform. This ought to make plenty of Dropbox fans who happen to make use of Windows Phone handsets as their primary mobile device of communication happy.
This means there is no more need to rely on third party alternatives, including the likes of CloudSix, although it might be some time before the official Dropbox app for Windows Phone is made available to the masses. What we do have to play with at the moment is a confirmation that the app itself is well on its way, but it is said to arrive “in the coming months”. Hopefully a fixed date would be forthcoming sooner rather than later, but this assurance is definitely a good sign of things to come.
For our readers who happen to rock to Windows Phone handsets so far, how have you managed your expectations with the cloud on your smartphone all this while?
