iPhone Filesharing becomes a reality at Buzz Technologies Inc

2008-03-21 16:34:10 - 2008 has become the year of the iPhone so as expected many companies have been hard a work trying to perfect a universal iPhone file sharing application.

Those who have been waiting on Apple’s (NASDAQ:AAPL) SDK were bitterly disappointed by the limitations imposed by Apple on developers. Buzz Technologies, Inc (OTC:BZTG) has been working on it’s Mobile/PC file sharing abilities and is expecting to release Me2u, an iPhone to iPhone, iPhone to Mobile and iPhone to PC file sharing application. The service allows the sharing of music, movies files and applications.

While that may sound like a natural technology progression, the greatest barriers mobile filesharing faces is the lack of operating system interoperability that exists in the wireless industry. Where computers are dominated by the Window’s OS, file sharing torrents developed more naturally to create an application that decompiles data on one end to be shared and recompiled at the other end, Buzz Technologies, Inc has overcome.

The iPhone isn’t just winning the mobile news game, according to the M:Metrics study. A larger percentage of iPhone owners watch mobile TV or video and listen to music downloads than any another smartphone users, M:Metrics says. A whopping 30.9 percent of iPhone owners watched TV or video on their devices in January, compared to 14.2 percent of all smartphone users. And 74.1 percent of those Apple handset owners listened to mobile music, while just 27.9 percent of all smartphone users listened to tunes via mobile devices, according to the research. This research indicates the market for Buzz’s Me2u filesharing service is enormous.

iPhone users also visit social networking sites the most (49.7 percent), Me2u also serves as a mobile community and is certain to attract many iPhone users with it’s free GPRS messaging. iPhone users also visit YouTube's mobile site (30.4 percent), M:Metrics says. Only seven percent of all smartphone owners accessed a social networking site and just one percent visited YouTube mobile to watch videos, according to the research. Facebook was the most popular social networking among iPhone users.

There are a couple of good reasons for those results. First of all, iPhone users have access to specially designed Facebook and YouTube sites, Buzz’s Me2u iPhone site will be online within the next 14 days and is also expected to see good traffic.
