Samsung Galaxy S III owners to get 50GB of free Dropbox storage

10HTC One customers aren't the only people getting free Dropbox space to sweeten their smartphone purchase. Samsung has announced that anyone who buys and registers a Galaxy S III will have their Dropbox accounts expanded to 50GB for two years.

We're not sure whether buyers will see any special deals after that, but it's a good offer at least for the length of the standard smartphone contract.
What does make this slightly odd is that with Google Drive out, one of the best-known new Android phones is essentially coming bundled with a competitor's service. If the free storage trend keeps up, we'll have to see if Dropbox continues to be the tool of choice.

Otixo Is a Convenient File Manager for Dropbox, Google Drive, SkyDrive, and All Your Other Cloud Services

If you're using more than one cloud storage service (hard not to, with all the free space being thrown around), managing your files between them can be tricky. Otixo gives you a centralized view of all your online files for easy copying and pasting between accounts from the web interface or through a mapped drive on your desktop. Otixo currently connects to Dropbox, Google Docs, Box, SkyDrive, SugarSync, Picasa, MobileMe, and Amazon S3. You can also add your own FTP or WebDav servers to connect to. Otixo doesn't store your files on its servers or save your login credentials—in most cases, that is (the SugarSync API seems to work differently than Dropbox, Google, and SkyDrive, but you can choose not to have your password saved in the service).
Once you connect your accounts, you've got an Explorer- or Finder-like view of all your files and can drag-and-drop them at will, as well as rename files, download to disk, share, and, for PDFs and images, preview the files online.
