Have you been in the market for a new NAS drive? Can't figure out which one would suit you best? We know it's a crowded market out there, but QNAP has just dropped a bomb on the whole place. If you're an iPad, iPod touch or iPhone user, QNAP has a new offer that may be too good to refuse. They have developed a new QNAP QMobile app that allows iPad, iPod touch and iPhones to remotely stream music, photos and videos from their QNAP NAS server, and we're not just talking about in-home, but anywhere with an Internet connection.
The app is launching alongside the QNAP v3.3 NAS management utility update, and it enables streaming from NAS-to-iProduct over 3G or Wi-Fi. This reduces or eliminates the need to have the files synchronized and stored physically on the device while providing a simple and convenient way for mobile consumers to access their home content from anywhere. There's even a My Jukebox feature that enables users to remotely browse and select playlists created on the NAS to suit their mood by song title, artist, album, even ID3 tags.This should be a welcome addition to those who aren't fond of iTunes.
This also helps if you've run out of space on your iPhone; so long as your NAS is online and you have a 3G connection, you can just stream your entire jukebox library from home. The app is available now in the App Store as a free download.

And I'm trying to find less reasons to buy a QNAP NAS
This is not helping!
