In other words, no.
"Either carry everything on a USB drive which you could lose, or on a laptop which could be stolen, or simply access the documents at your destination on a different computer even if your laptop or USB drive was lost or stolen."

In other words, it's the same as a USB drive or laptop minus a couple of security risks - risks that can easily be minimized.

Personally, my hand is on the bag that holds my laptop 100% of the time, and it never leaves my side. Sitting, standing, walking, it doesn't matter. I never set it down. The only way to steal it would be at gunpoint (and even then, I've installed a couple of nasty surprises for such occasions should I lose it in such a manner).

"Instead of trying to pick it up as an attachment at Hotmail (which is plgged with spam)"

Hotmail? What's that? OH, that Microsoft webmail product that I never used.

I got rid of spam, it's not a problem for me anymore. There are plenty of alternatives to Hotmail that have decent spam fighting tools.

"This also works well for collaberation efforts between people who, again, do not want to use email."

OK, collaboration I can see (although I DO hear that Microsoft sells collaboration software). Being a student, though, I'm not yet to the point where I collaborate often (in our "education" system, working with somebody else is often called "cheating").

"This is truly a niche' tool"

Sounds more like a tool that combines the advantages of several other pieces of software. Still, it could have potential - if they find a way to really differentiate it from other products.
