It's definitely different, and frustrating for superusers, but I think it will be perfect for the majority of the population.
- shin_lao 17y agoI'm sorry but you can both allow files to be moved (photo, music, movies, documents) and abstract the file system. When I move the photos from my camera to my computer, I don't have to deal with the file system at any moment.
- doron 17y agoExactly I dig the ipad allot, but Itunes and the design imperative behind it (it organizes my files, not me) never worked for me, it never worked for my music, it wont work for documents.
- GHFigs 17y agoInteresting choice of example, as loading photos from a camera is something the iPad can do without third-party software.
