Basically I'm using tagtag.com to set up a simple wapsite so I can host java games and apps for a few of my friends to download with their cell phones.
I need to find somewhere to host those files that will allow me to directly link to them from my wapsite.
I dont need a lot of storage space as the files are only about 58kb each and the wapsites only going to be used by a few friends so I dont need much bandwidth.
The filetypes are java extensions, .jar and .jad.

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply muchspl2 but really all I'm looking for is a file host not a web host. The reason being a lot of free webhosts limit the filetypes you can upload and most actually require you to upload a website and not just a few jar/jad files :D
The type of host I'm after is like a Yahoo breifcase affair but one that I can link to for a ddl.

Thanks anyway :)
