Looks great, but I wonder what Apple's Legal Department would think of you using the iDisk name...

I don't know about Apple legal, but IMO, naming it iDisk was a dumb idea.
There are so many other better names. And plus, who associates "i-Thing"
with an Apple? That's for the Macs!

Naming aside, (a rose) if this thing can deliver, then this is it: we've
reached nirvana.


From a brief perusal of the web site, I think it's a pretty far
cry from nirvana.  It seems very restricted in its connectivity
and operations.

I think in the absence of experience, a lot of projection is
going on.  Put another way, the grass a mile away is _really_
green.  ;-)
