It looks like Novell will offer a plug and play network attached storage device to go with it's Just-On software.

Just-On is the company Novell acquired that makes software allows you to drag and drop a file from your computer onto a folder on the Just-on server. They also have a file syncronization feature that allows you to modify the file and have it automatically updated on the server.

So if you travel around and use computers in different sites you can get at your files from any site and know they are up-to-date without having to carry around floppies.

What is interesting here is the Novell approach to selling Just-On. They intend to sell the just-on server as a plug and play appliance. This means that ISPs that want to offer the service to their customers can merely buy a Novell box and plug it into their network.
