I have seen a number of services in this space from box.net to xdrive etc. But really, for a small business, with needs to store and share large amount of data in the cloud, there are very few services. For ex: I have my design data that is easily in 30+GB. Box.net simply does not have functionality to move around so much data, xdrive dies before it gets to 5GB. The only service that had practical application for sizeable data is IBackup. Not only was I able to transfer large amount of data from my location, I could get by partner to download a section of data (in a few GBs) really fast. I think IBackup may be a little overpriced at this time, but there simply are no other services in this space. Nice post on IBackup and online storage.
