Hi Yuri, I did sign up for an invite. Can you please tell me whats the major reason(s) I would want to go with you not with JungleDisk which seems to be doing similar things. Is it price/value differentiation only or there is more to the story?

We're fundamentally very different from JungleDisk (unless they've been doing something we're not aware of)...

JungleDisk (like most other players in this space) requires you to upload your data to their server first, before you're able to sync it to other devices, where as using AeroFS, you're actually syncing data completely peer-to-peer (e.g. even on an isolated LAN), without a third party server, unless you want one
