AutoCAD WS mobile Offline Editing Viewing of DWG Files
Between the Lines: "The AutoCAD WS mobile version includes the ability to sync files to your mobile device and view, markup, and edit even without an Internet connection. Your DWG and DXF files are synced from your free online AutoCAD WS account. If you make changes to the files while offline, the changes will automatically be saved and available for sharing once the device is connected to the Internet. The files are stored on a secure web location also commonly called “cloud” storage, but instead of that “cloud” term, think of it as portable data access anywhere. There are no limits for storage at this time but there is a 15MB single DWG upload restriction.

It is no surprise that AutoDesk has come out with an app supporting AutoCAD, many other CAD and theatre technology (in particular I have heard about lighting but I know there are CAD apps for other uses). What I did find surprising was that it is free. I know the WS feature is a free online tool as well, but typically there is some kind of premium to this sort of accessibility. Also, there are other AutoDesk products when I checked on iTunes that are also free (Inventor Publisher and SketchBook Express), but not all are (the full SketchBook is not). I just downloaded the AutoCAD app to check it out, but have not yet tried it. Anyone else played with it yet?
