Downloaded thinking I could use my iPod Touch as a USB to transfer some files inside just to realize you can only ACCESS files (copy files out of device).
This is indispensable. Many iPhone apps offer nothing but quirky conduits for transfering files to the desktop. In many situations, this solution puts an end to that hassle.
Two things: they've extended the freeware offer until December 1st, and if your iDevice is jailbroken, this utility will let you mount the root directory. Pretty spiffy stuff.
My only complaint would be that its UI is badly designed compared to most Mac apps (which may owe to the developer possibly having started out on Windows and just beginning to learn Interface Builder — their stuff is largely cross-platform or Windows-only), but you almost never see that part of PhoneDisk anyway, so it's no bother. It works pretty seamlessly, although it occasionally loses track of what's plugged in or not, and can temporarily freeze when this happens. Again, barely a problem when you're actually using it. You may see a duplicate "drive" on your desktop, that's about the worst of it.
Cool, nice find.
