The point was that the lack of a file manager that directly exposes the file system DOES NOT imply that you need to manage content from content specific applications. To play devil's advocate a bit - people seem to forget that tag/content based browsing is a lot more persistent than filesystem browsing - if I use a MacBook, a MeeGo tablet and a Win7 desktop PC, do I really need to know the file hierarchy on all three even if I use the exact same applications/services on them ? iOS does this suckily - but that does not mean the goal or idea itself is flawed. Thus, consider carefully whether the "I need" in the statements does not originate at least a little bit from "I'm used to". /me ducks and hides in the trenches of his command line Best regards, Attila Csipa _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list MeeGo-dev@meego.com http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev http://wiki.meego.com/Mailing_list_guidelines
