Revisiting iPhone Disk: MacFUSE system for iPhone and iPod touch

I first tried out iPhoneDisk a few months ago. It implements MacFuse for the iPhone and was, at the time I tested it, flaky and incompletely implemented. Now that Apple has shut down all the better ways to interact with your iPhone, I decided to start revisiting early and abandoned efforts to see whether they showed promise with the new 1.1.1 updates. What I found was this: iPhoneDisk remains as flaky and incomplete as ever but it does work with both the iPod touch and iPhone. You can use it to transfer files to and from your Media folder directly in the Finder.

Because iPhoneDisk is open source, it provides the perfect opportunity for coders to get involved, expand and debug the project. SSHFS made it easy to put your iPhone files onto your desktop but now that 1.1.1 killed ssh access, maybe it's time to go back and give iPhoneDisk another look.
