… View and share files on your iDisk from your iPhone. Apple, Inc. has finally released their official MobileMe iDisk app in the App Store. This app is so useful and the perfect companion for all of you trying to make use of your MobileMe iDisk while on-the-go. I love this since I keep a lot of my transported files up on iDisk.
Now you have another, more convenient way to get to your iDisk — the iDisk app for iPhone and iPod touch. Free for MobileMe members, the iDisk app lets you view files on your iDisk right on your iPhone or iPod touch. Any recently viewed file doesn’t need to be loaded again. And if you want to share a file, the iDisk app lets you do that, too. Just tap the Share button, choose your recipients, and iDisk sends them an email with a link to download your file.
The app is extremely simple and straight-forward. Just launch the app and you will be prompted to enter your username and password. Once logged in you will see a list of all of the folders and files on your iDisk. You can then view those files or share them with others.
To share files, simply tap the large share button on the right-hand side and choose your recipients. The app will then send an email with a link to download the file directly from your iDisk. If you so choose, you can assign a password and limit the number of days the download is available to keep your files safe.
MobileMe iDisk supports all kinds of file types, including iWork, Office, PDF, Quicktime, and more. Files larger than 20MB may not be viewable. The app also requires iPhone OS 3.0 or later.

With iPhone 1.x and 2.x, you could hold down the Home button to “force quit” an application (kill the process) and return to the Home Screen. With iPhone 3.0, however, holding down the Home button now activates Voice Control on the iPhone 3G S.
So, how do you Force Quit under iPhone 3.0?
To force quit an application in 3.0, press and hold the sleep/wake button until the slide to power off screen appears, then press and hold the home button until the application quits (about 6 sec).
