Print to iPod/iPhone touch via FileMagnet and Automator
Authored by: Mac Berry on Oct 31, '08 04:15:33AM

Well OK if that works for you, but with an IMAP account:

- I now have two copies on my desktop, one in sent and one in inbox, that I don't need. If I delete either, they get deleted on the iPhone too.

- To find a file I have to hunt through all my e-mail on the iPhone.

- I'm snookered if I want to keep the attachment longer than I keep e-mail on my iPhone.

- As you say, I have to enter an e-mail address.

So no, no-where near as useful or clean as the hint, which is extremely handy IMHO.

Agree. However, you could ofcourse have a specific mail account just used for this purpose, I guess.

But you would have a limitation with your file size for most mail accounts. With FileMagnet I've transferred and viewed 1+ GB movies w/o problems.

And then I prefer to be able to do this without the requirement for a working internet connection for both Mac and iPod/iPhone (guess you could do something with the built-in Mac OS X mail-server, but I assume there still might be problems with IP addresses etc).
