As a user of Android phones I look at Phandroid once a day to see
what's new. A couple weeks ago they announced a new app for Box and, if
you signed up by April 3? you got 50 GB storage for free. I did so, and
now have free storage more than ample for my needs. I can access it
from any computer, as well as from my phone.

I don't know about the file size limit, though. Nor do I know anything
about security. I have to log in with a password, although if I log in
from my phone the login is automatic.
