I've been thinking something similar, but I'm a bit put-off by the cost. I've contemplated a simple set-up, where I have an agreement with a friend (who lives a considerable distance from me), where we both set ourselved up so that I incrementaly backup to a dedicated drive in his home, and vice-versa. I've not given a lot of thought to the logistics of this yet, but I wouldn't think it would be too hard to do......
