iPad File Sharing? Screenshot from post-Keynote hands-on video

[brooks.curly]

Hello everyone.
I came across this excellent video. A nice shot of one of the Settings panes on the iPad, as well as some features of iWork we might not have seen before. What immediately caught my attention was this File Sharing preference.

Here is a link to the video if you would like to watch it:

Also, there is a Profiles section down there... Multiple user login? This has been brought up before, I know this.

Throw out your ideas, speculations, expectations, thoughts, questions, etc.
Hope this isn't a double post. Please let me know, in a way other than "already posted use search feature idiot".

I'm betting "Profiles" is more of a settings profile you can save, rather than different users. IE Profile "Battery Saver" and "High Performance" -- set your own etc... one to turn down brightness etc... the other to put it up (changing other settings as well of course).

While that may be true the screenshot shows "File Sharing" right under Location Services.

it was covered in the first iPad simulator by this site.

Isn't profiles the 2nd button from the bottom?

Do you have a link? I'd love to see it. I'm not challenging you, I'd just like to see the page

I'd also be curious, somehow I've never seen any mention of file sharing.

Good catch! I didn't see it if it was posted here before so thanks for posting it.

Profiles has been around since 2.0.: http://www.apple.com/iphone/business/integration/

Ah, okay. My mistake. I, unfortunately, do not have an iPhone because I'm on Verizon. I'm one of the hopefuls banking on a Verizon iPhone this summer/fall...

Being 6502 in a month is quite amazing.

I was horrified because I thought it was 500 posts, but apparently it's only 250. (500 is the 6502a I guess?) Still. I'll be the first to admit I have a problem. (I'm generally more of a lurker.) Can't wait for the stupid thing.

The funny thing is, once I get the iPad, I'll probably add a few more posts and then disappear. In terms of forum presence, I also lack follow-through.
