iDisk for iPhone

Yesterday, Apple released iDisk for iPhone. It's available for free download from the App Store. iDisk is the online storage component of Apple's MobileMe. It enables MobileMe subscribers to access contents stored.

The application lets you view and share files stored in your iDisk; you log in with your MobileMe user name and password, then tap the Share icon to share files with others; they're sent a link by e-mail. You can assign a password to keep files secure, and limit the number of days the download will be available.

Viewing files is limited to iPhone-supported file types, including iWork, Office, PDF, QuickTime, and others. Apple cautions that files larger than 20MB may not be viewable.

System requirements call for an iPhone or iPod Touch running iPhone OS 3.0 and an active MobileMe subscription.
