The idea is multi platform seemless workflow, it's Adobe's version of iCloud.

OK, so where does the software reside, do you download it on each computer you are going to use it on then it sort of 'Auto Authorises', surely the images are not downloaded each time you access an image.

Either way it would appear to be very heavy on an internet connection. Especially if you have a D800! Even if I could afford it that aspect would put me right off. I only have a sub 1 Mb service which takes about 12 hrs to download 3.6Gb files.

Which bit is actually kept in the 'cloud'?

With iCloud the software is kept loaded on the computer and the data is kept in the iCloud. For example, Text Edit, allows you to save to a folder within your computer OR save to the iCloud. If you save to the iCloud then the data can be accessed on any (recent) Mac computer anywhere, by logging into the appropriate Apple account.
