Previously, if you needed to gain access to your device’s file system (doesn’t matter if it was an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad), you would need to jailbreak the device and install some kind of file manager like iFile. An alternative would be to install OpenSSH and log into your device using an FTP app. But now, there’s another way and it’s so much simpler!

Meet Phone Disk. It’s basically a menu bar app (or system tray app if you’re on a Windows PC) that can mount any USB-connected iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad. After it’s mounted, you will be able to browse through the device’s file system using Windows Explorer or Finder. It’s as simple as that. You won’t even need to jailbreak your device.

It even supports mounting multiple devices.

Phone Disk supports all generations of iPhones, iPod Touches and iPads. No jailbreaking is required. Works on both Windows and Mac OS X. And here’s the kicker: it’s free until December 1st 2010! All you need to do is head over here and download the app. Then register it using this license: 2H96A-QK7MX-8GEYK1V-ZR6S8
I’m downloading it right now. What are you waiting for?
