Linux users will now be able to access, edit and share virtually all of their files stored on their Linux PCs from a wide selection of cell phones.

Glide automatically syncs your photos, music, videos, documents, iCal calendars, Address Book contacts, and Safari, Camino and Firefox bookmarks from your computer via the Internet so you can access virtually all of your digital stuff from your cell phone. Glide achieves the ideal of anytime, anywhere access by making it possible to synchronise all of your files on your local desktop(s) to and from Glide's hosted web services, the company mentioned.
Glide's compatibility engine then serves up your files in the proper format and bit rate for access on various devices and for easy sharing.
Glide serves as your digital companion that travels with you even when you change phones, service providers or upgrade your systems. Effectively, Glide provides one unified file and information management system and productivity suite for all of your devices.
