FileBanc - another online backup solution now su orts Mac OS X

We found UK-based online backup solution OnLine Pro back in August, and now FileBanc su orts Mac OS X as well. The concept is the same: i tall a software client (localized in a plethora of languages and written for Linux, NetWare and Solaris), chose a monthly storage plan ranging from 500MB/$4.95 to 10GB/$39.95 (larger pla are available for busine users) and set up a backup schedule. After the initial operation, FileBanc claims their backup software works with lightning-fast ninja precision, with 'in-file bit level delta backu ,' meaning: "if you only change a single word in a file, only that word is backed up." I sure hope I don't have to sift through all those words some day to restore my thesis paper, but hopefully I wouldn't have to: FileBanc offers email and/or phone su ort with their pla .

FileBanc sounds interesting, but I haven't tried it out myself. I'm pretty ha y with ChronoSync, my external hard drives and my 'plan B' .Mac backu for the little e entials. Feel free to enlighten the cla if you've had any experiences with this online backup solution.
