With iCloud users can store photos, apps, doc, calendars and access songs on iTunes without having them to store in the phone’s memory.

You can create amazing documents and presentations on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. And now with iCloud, you can keep your work up to date across all your iOS devices. You don’t have to save your work or transfer any files. And it’s free with iOS 5.
