WriteRoom for the iPhone quick review #apple

Just a quick update; I recently picked up WriteRoom for the iPhone, since I wanted a really, really, really basic notepad that could transfer notes back and forth between my iPod Touch and my Desktop. Turns out this was a very cool purchase. It's minimal, which I love, but it also has the ability to (among other ways to export) display your documents in a browser on your Desktop. This is by far not the most secure way to share documents, but on my closed little fortress it's no big deal.

So you turn on the temporary share in WriteRoom for the iPhone, you point your browser at the specified address, and you are presented with this..

Pretty frickin' suave. It will allow you to read documents and write documents from the browser window, so importing isn't a problem. An improvement (perhaps too much to ask) would be to have a drag and drop interface via a tiny Java applet. That could get complex though. Actually on second thought forget it, I like this app as simple as it is!
