If it will only work via WiFi, do you know if one can do an [adhoc WiFi network] between a laptop with WiFi and the iPhone, but with NO access point like my Linksys devices in my office? If not, then my users will have to carry not only a laptop, but also an access point. (I may be using the wrong word when I say 'access point'. I have a linksys wireless router in my office.)
Thanks,

Well, Apple has just accepted our application update with mongoose server added. In new version of the application, using mongoose, user can both upload and download particular files within application documents folder (not all of course, only those, which we allow to be downloaded). But achieving this is not as simple as viewing application documents folder contents...
If you are interested in how it works, download SuperMemo app (it's free), go to New Exercise menu, click '+' in topright corner and choose Import / Export, then just follow the information listed.
I'm afraid, that you are right with the USB issue :/
And concerning AdHoc WiFi: in work I use iMac, which is connected to the internet via LAN, not WiFi. So I can use iMac's AirPort to share this internet connection, which results in creating local WiFi net. Then i just connect to this WiFi with iPhone. I'm not sure if you can do similar thing on your laptop (if it is MacBook - probably yes
, but why don't give it a try?
Hope this helps,
Regards
