I worry that this is one area where hiding the filesystem on the iPad could have detrimental effects on a user’s experience. If I am an average user, my experience has taught me that deleting a file from a folder doesn’t really mean the file is deleted; it’s in file-purgatory. If I bring this mentality to the iPad, though, it could result in devastating losses of data.
This is one thing I hate about the iPhone — and it looks like it is not going to get any better with the iPad. Why do they take the FileSystem away (completely). At least let some way to access is — not just by jailbreaking!
