I'm using
sendSynchronousRequest:, you're using
initWithRequest:. In mine, it will sit in that method until it's done. Which is not a good thing for a large transfer, but mine is quite small. For a fair amount of data, yours is better.

That's the actual data. Does it really need to be a file when it gets to the server, or is your server side going to read the data and do something with it? How are you creating the file on the phone in the first place?
There are ways to encode actual files into an POST request, but you'll need to look up the appropriate parameters to set in the NSURLRequest object. It's much more complicated. I found this example with a quick Google search:
