As the iPhone evolves into a viable business device, developers are stepping up to provide a wide variety of useful utilities. A top priority for any business user is figuring out how to access and view their documents.

We’ve thoroughly covered the progress developers are making in delivering full editing of Word and Excel files. This leaves users with questions on how to easily access and view pdfs and presentations in addition to the aforementioned office docs. Enter cloud file storage and synchronization.

TUAW, The Unnoficial Weblog takes a look at five file sharing applications, Readdle Docs, box.net, ZumoDrive, Drop.io and my favorite, Dropbox. I’m eagerly awaiting their native iPhone app. The bottom line is, as an iPhone user, you now have a lot of options.
