iPhoneDrive: Store your Files on the iPhone

by

Ecamm Network has released a Mac OS X application called iPhoneDrive which allows you to store arbitrary files onto your iPhone. The purpose appears to be a way to emulate "drive mode" with the iPhone, allowing you to use your iPhone as an expensive USB flash drive.

The software provides no access to other files on the iPhone, so you can't copy photos, music, movies that have previously been synced with iTunes.

The system requirements include Mac OS X 10.4.10 and iTunes v7.3 and costs $9.95 for the full version. A free week long demo is provided.

add that functionality????

They took it away. My old 40Gb iPod mounts on the desktop with no issues what ever. And I can drag and drop files either way.

It is relatively quick (in comparison to USB 2) to transfer files back and forth because of the firewire interface.

Don't get me started on the loss of firewire.............



wow.. tuff crowd. ten bucks is nothing if transfering data is important to you.. esp since you have no other option (with the iPhone) right now. sooner or later apple will add that functionality.. but this company (person) took the time to build it.. ten bucks is reasonable.

i think not...something that should've been there in the first place, not going to pay for it

'if' iPhone ever gets to oz, i'll pirate that $10 software (if i want/need it at that time)

You, sir, are cheap. It would be fitting if someone rips you off someday, say, steals your iPod. Do you also pilfer candy bars from the convenience store? Grow up.
