don't you know benny, users downloading files from the internet is dangerous

anyway, there is no common file storage on the iphone platform(even with jailbreaking it is kind of a hack) which means if you have one app that creates files or whatever they are not accessible to other apps. Of course some of the apple developed apps can access *some* files across apps, but I don't think this is open to all apps.

In other words, on an iphone, you can't open file manager, create a folder called client2, go to the internet and find the pdf and the ppt and images you need and download them and save them in that folder. Nor can you AFAIK download to your iphone various files to have with you and email them out as needed. there are various webdav and dropbox hacks to get around these limitations though.

a huge limitation IMO.
