This offer applies to all HTC Androids (not all Android devices).
Yes! OP please change the title, it is very misleading.
Does it work on rooted HTC phone with Cyanogenmod?
To be fair, everywhere HTC announced it, they used the same headline. It's only slightly less pompous than referring to iOS devices without an article.
Of course this would happen as soon as I migrate over to Spideroak.
It is an excellent selling feature all the same, and applying it to all devices is the sort of thing that builds tremendous brand loyalty.

Relying on HTC's Twitter feed for information isn't the most reliable way of gaining information about the company. For a long time I thought I'd be getting an official update to my OS (HTC Desire to Gingerbread), specifically because HTC said I would via Twitter .. needless to say, I didn't.
This seems pretty much like speculation to me.

Yeah, for THAT information you have to go to their facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=225607660802056

How can you activate this?
Smart move for both Dropbox and HTC. Everybody wins, and the users get the most out of this.
Hopefully we're going to see more deals like this, but PLEASE manufacturers, don't make these apps un-uninstalable (like google did with Twitter.. I don't use twitter)

Apparently ICS makes all apps uninstallable. I'm sure American carries will find some way to muck it up though.
This isn't new to ICS. "pm disable «packagename»" works on Gingerbread, at least.
Nah, ICS allows you to disable any application, not uninstall it. It's basically in a state which just uses storage space, which is still a good thing.
But who's to say that manufacturers won't modify ICS and disable 'certain features' ?
In order for a phone manufacturer to get the Google seal of approval (which allows you to bundle up the Android Market and various Google Apps in your distribution) their "fork" of Android has to pass a suite of compatibility and assurance tests. Google could simply add that functionality as being required in the test suite to force the phone carriers not to muck with it.
I wonder if this applies to my old nexus one
this service is ONLY for HTC-Androids and ONLY for 12 month.

hmm.. time to borrow friend's HTC for 'grabbing' this offer.
