That said, the tools we have for added backup service currently assume that there is already a Sonic.net account to attach it to. @Pete – By definition you’d have a Sonic.net account upon signing up for backup service.

Is this available to people who do nto have a sonic account? I have free broadband at my home so I don't need a sonic account, but like the idea of using a local company for my back-up needs. Thanks!

All I would need is ssh access to the backup disk space and I would sign up pronto. Then I could finally quit carrying around my external hard drive everywhere I go:) Will there be an announcement when this service is available for Linux?
