An exemplary mobile communication device for facilitating manufacturer-independent interface between mobile computers and remote data storage comprises a transceiver, a processor, and a memory with executable instructions that configure the device to: connect to the remote data storage via an available communication channel; transmit to remote data storage a first remove list identifying files previously transferred by the device to a first storage device associated with a first mobile computer; receive from remote data storage a second download list identifying files to be transferred to a second storage device associated with a second mobile computer; and delete files identified in the second download list but not in a locally-stored first download list of files to be transferred to the second storage device. Exemplary embodiments also include methods and computer-readable media embodying such operations that the device is configured to perform.

Device and method for manufacturer-independent interface between mobile computers and remotely accessible data storage

Embodiments include methods, server systems, and computer-readable media that provide manufacturer-independent interface to mobile computers via a plurality of mobile communication devices. These embodiments associate a particular service account with a first mobile computer and with first and second mobile communication devices, and transmit to the first and second mobile communication devices a first download list identifying files to be transferred to a first storage device associated with the first mobile computer. Embodiments also receive from the first mobile communication device a first remove list identifying files transferred by the first mobile communication device to the first storage device. Embodiments also delete files identified on the first remove list from the portion of the data storage associated with the particular service account, create a second download list comprising the first download list but not the first remove list, and transmit to the second mobile communication device the second download list.
