Since you've probably got more than one email address, technically I assume you can have multiple free versions. John pointed out something really cool for video pros in that you can just compress right to the folder and leave. No sitting around and waiting to send the email. Rob,

Maybe I'll look into it now. You mention a free version, is that just a trial or is just really limiting on what you can do? I’ve heard of Dropbox before, but never bothered to give it a shot.

Just check later through your iPhone app and let the client know they are available to view. Mobile Me does this too but dropbox is free and (so far) solid as a rock.
