If you are familiar with Dropbox, you might have noticed that you cannot access Dropbox directly from Windows Mobile, but only from the web-version. Developer Ruttensoft has developed a beta version of Dropbox for Windows Mobile, which is the missing frontend for Dropbox and gives you access to all your files and folders in the Cloud.

It runs on all Windows Mobile 5 and higher versions and all these resolutions are supported:
320×240, 240×320, 640×480, 480×640, 800×480, 480×800, 320×320.

Like most programs you need the .NET Compact Framework 3.5 installed to run it.
