| | P2P for cell phones: Reach out and share something - Internet - News - ZDNet Asia |
 | | Thursday, November 04 2004 11:03 AM Cell phones are learning to share files, but the earliest efforts don't nearly resemble the peer-to-peer renegades like Napster and Kazaa that the designers have in mind. |
 | | FoneShare, an application introduced two weeks ago by NewBay Software, does let people share their collections of ring tones, graphics, games, songs, movie trailers and other wireless extras with strangers. |
