I would like to throw this out to the community for a little guidance.

In the last year my wife and I jumped on the tablet bandwagon and are very happy with our respective Android tablets for regular email and web surfing from the couch. In our house we also have a Linux laptop where I do a lot of work and such as well as a Windows Vista box I have basically made a file and media machine (hay it's been good to me).

So now it has become time to do some easy sharing and syncing across all these machines and installing a personal cloud server on the Vista box seems like what I need to do. I have looked at ownCloud and Tonido so far which both look similar but require the enterprise or paid versions for mobile sync apps although they do both have free regular access clients. So before I start spending money, as the sync is important to me, I would like to ask my fellow Soylerantes..um Soylas..uhh.. Soylanistas.. have you had any luck with personal cloud servers and specifically have you got one syncing with Android?
