Looks like I will be not be getting the premium service.

1. My home PC is switched on close to 24/7
2. There will always be someone at/near home, so a simple phone call would do the trick

> 10GB for $80/year
Wow! and what for? Why should I trust someone to keep my files on their server? Also it doesn’t looks like this solution will works with MAC and Linux computers. Sorry, this solution isn’t for me.
You can get the latest SymSMB from http://www.telexy.com for half of that price (total price, no subscription) and use it to access not one but ANY computer from your phone, even few computers at the same time! Also you can access your phone files from any computers too. In both cases Wi-Fi, 3G and other wireless protocols could be used. What else anyone could need for the file management between computer and phone?
Ovi is offering only web-browser based access while SymSMB offering real file access.
Ovi is offering access to the copy of files on their server, while SymSMB offering access to the real file on the real computer.
Solutions like Ovi exist in many variations for quite a long time, while no one so far was able to do what SymSMB does – secure, natural, bi-directional wireless file sharing and access between S60 mobile phone and computer.

QUICKACCESS by Quickoffice offers a similar solution, but it is a far cheaper package than FILES ON OVI:10 GB at EUR13 a year.

I agree. This will probably be integrated into the phone in the future. It’s convenient, and will probably get cheaper once it gains adoption. I may not trust my data to a host, but this feels more personal, for whatever false reason. Not to mention the integration with the free option for your PC. I’ve been using MOSH as an online vault recently, myself. Keep all my hacking tools and install files there, and when I format, I just access my collection and go! This is an improved version of what I’ve been doing, with a large file allocation. Not sure how much MOSH will allow, but the app being on the phone invites me to use it, as will this files on Ovi, and someone will buy it. Law of averages. I’ll keep using the free MOSH, though. :-)
