Howdy,

I remember the earlier articles but not these. Of course I didn't have an iPad at the time so I may have simply ignored them. Very nicely put together.

Steve Jobs made a big mistake by assuming that documents should be owned by a single app and therefore there is no need for a `file system'. Anyone who is more than a simple user will often use more than one app to work on the same file; e.g., many photo enthusiasts (not necessarily professionals) use multiple applications when dealing with raw photo files or even jpg file. Luckily, under OS X, even though there is a default application that opens when you double click the file, you can right click a file and use Open With… to open a file with another application. No such luck with iOS.

Good Luck,
