Personally I'll keep on using it, there's no real reason for alarm unless you're doing illegal stuff on there. I've got 80 free gb, no-where else will give me that

I use dropbox but I do not put anything in there that is sensitive and is not encrypted by myself.

how the hell do you have 80 gigs?! i only have 2.25 gigs.. ='(

yeah, I mean, it's pretty disconcerting that they're having privacy issues, but like other ppl have said in the thread, I'm not keeping anything crazy there so no worries.

I had 60gb free.. drop box reduced it to 5 gb unexpectedly..

I started with the 5gb bonus, then invited 4 people (6gb), then got the 4gb Sense 3.5 one (I installed a ROM), then I got 10gb from various things, including inviting more people, the upload for more room and then Dropquest 2012. That got me up to 30gb. Then I got the 40gb from the Samsung hack, and now I have 80gb

This is all old news. If you wish to secure your files encrypt them with TrueCrypt or some other program before uploading to DropBox or any other cloud service.

I have 14.5gb free space. Key word: referrals; but you only get the space IF they install it on a pc. You don't get the additional space if they download it on a mobile device.

I was down to twenty free when I ran it. Was happy to see the results. And so far no difference in speed.

they have a little thing or motto going on..
10 days, 10 apps, 10cents.
it can't be
free days, free apps, free cents.
also it forces you at add your credit card which will make people buy apps later because the information is already there
Hey, this thread looks familiar.

Ah well, I got 2 apps for 10 cents. We'll see what they are tomorrow. All the ones today are really heavy apps (9-20mb), but for 10cents,who cares. Install and use for a bit.

Carrier billing FTW? Got 3 apps and a game. Put it on my tab
They kind of chose a bad batch of apps though. Really only SoundHound and SwiftKey are the big ones, but I bought the keyboard during black Friday on sale already.

I got mine with the HP Touchpad promotion, but I got my wife on the it's link. Can never have too much online storage
i really hope they make box not suck in the future instead of offering more useless space. there's a reason why everyone uses dropbox, usability. anyway, i did this a while ago on my cousin's ipod touch but it's nice to see people be able to get it without jumping thru hoops.

Can you guys verify the file size limitation under "Account?"
When I did this a few weeks ago, I was limtied to 100MB/file. My buddy had signed up using his Touch Pad some time earlier and he got the same 50GB storage limit but with a 1GB file size limit.

Thanks for the confirmation.
I'll also go on record as noting that 100mb sucks for any meaningful backups (eg nandroid)

Does anyone know what the app checks to verify the device? I'm wondering if I can just edit the build.prop to match the Canadian version and get the bonus because I'm trying (key word:trying) to wait for a way to reset the flash counter before making the jump to a custom ROM.

Update to the latest!
I think the dev of that rom needs to make some changes because from what I have read that is illegal here on xda but you guys enjoy it!
it's technically not the ROM, it's the drop box apk.that is included with it.

Maybe you are right but, its not like i did that intentionally trying to get the storage, it came as a surprise to me, maybe i should not of told everyone though, sorry i just was not thinking.... I guess it is piracy in a way.
Mod- feel free to delete this thread as soon as you can, i dont want to support illegal stuff here, id rather keep xda up for all to enoy, just was not thinking :/

True, but when the HTC One X came out and had the same deal someone uploaded the included modified .apk so anyone could dl and get the 50gb. It was promptly banned/thread closed and dropbox reverted everyone who tried it back to their default storage. So I do think it's illegal per xda rules (and dropbox of course). I can't fault you for finding it out on accident though Hopefully the ROM creator will fix things before they get in trouble.
Got it too! Awesome
I got it a few days ago.. I couldn't figure why.. =D Now i know!
