I'm looking for a cloud storage service that supports multiple
platforms (Lin/Win/Mac/iOS/Android). The specific need to is NOT store
data locally except in cache as needed. There are lots of services out
there but most offer a sync/backup functionality across multiple
computers which is not what I am looking for.

Jungledisk (Rackspace) does this however it is limited on shared
computers. Specifically on the Windows platform. It will not retain
separate configurations based on the user. On Linux its easy enough to
copy and modify the config to run separate instances.

Wuala (Lacie) appears to do this. I am looking into them more.

Box.net is another but they don't make their own clients. They let 3rd
parties make the clients. I'm still looking into them.

I have ruled out the following already:
Dropbox ... security nightmare.
Syncany  has not yet been developed to the level I need
(Lin/Win/Mac/iOS/Android).
Sparleshare has not yet been developed to the level I need
(Lin/Win/Mac/iOS/Android).
Ubuntu One is promising, but the mobile apps are crap and focused on
playing mp3's.
Spideroak - appears to be a data sync/backup service.

Please let me know if you are using another that service that can do this.
