Default Do you know an online backup solution to fit my requirements?

Hi, I've been checking out a lot of online backup providers and find it very difficult to find one that meets all my requirements. Please pass on any suggestions.

1. Secure backup/restore for personal use on multiple computers (<5)
2. Supports PC, MAC and iphone
3. Real time backup (not a scheduled solution)
4. Handles files over 5GB (my outlook archive is 8GB and growing)
5. ~150GB space based on current versions of files (not including version history)
6. Willing to pay around $50/year
7. Online access to files from anywhere
8. Ability to send/share files on web via secure link
9. Versioning

I'm having a hard time finding one that meets all the criteria, but I think it might be out there.

Here are some that I've considered:
Memopal: looked very promising, but their support team indicated they had a hard 5GB max file size limit that they would not change
iDrive: multiple computers tripled the cost
Carbonite: No web interface
Mozy: scheduled solution, cost per PC
Keepit: cost per PC

My search continues, please post if you have any promising leads!

Thanks,
Daws

Okay, I may have found it... doing further research, but here's what I've found out so far:

SafeCopyBackup.com: based on the memopad infrastructure and doesn't have the same file size restrictions

Has anyone used this one?

Thanks,
Daws

Who does real time backup?

Many of the providers do "real-time" backups. Basically every time a file is modified, it will be automatically put into the queue for immediate backup. Safecopy is doing this. I know many others offer this feature too.
