This app runs only on the iPad. Want to run Air Sharing on your iPhone or iPod touch as well? Check out our new Universal edition, simply called Air Sharing.

"Air Sharing is one of our favorite iPhone apps, and it only gets better on the iPads roomier screen. It lets you wirelessly mount your iPad as a drive on your computer so you can load it up with files. You can then view, share or print everything from PDFs to Excel documents. For anyone complaining about the lack of a file system on the iPad, this gives you one.… Highly recommended." — Gizmodo
