I agree with Graeme on this issue. The use and control of application data
on the mobile platforms is very different than in traditional OS situations.
The available data for applications on the mobile platform is strictly "sand
boxed" for security reasons, and writing of data for use by multiple
applications or use by the OS is nearly impossible. Also, the hardware
interface characteristics are very restrictive. A platform may have a USB
interface, but it is often restricted to keyboard and mouse applications.
Some of the platforms allow reading of data from a flash drive or writing to
a flash drive, but the use of data from the flash drive is highly regulated.
A good example of this is the image import kit for iPad. It is basically
USB, but application support is limited to one or two apps and their data is
basically available only to the application that imported the data.
Regards,
Tom
