Dropbox, being one of the first established cloud-based services on the map, has a large army of users. With Apple, Microsoft and Google all recently joining the party, competition is as fierce as its ever been, and the functionality of the mobile apps will undoubtedly play a key role in the success of each.
Imagine a dedicated Instagram-inspired camera dedicated to those old-fashioned, Polaroid shots we all know and love, and then picture that camera with the sleek, smooth edges of an iPhone 4S. Got a rough idea in your mind? Well, the chances are, you thought processes wouldn't have led you to anything like the masterpiece crafted by resident concept-designer Antonio De Rosa, who has once again treated us to a sublime figment of his tech-tastic imagination.
