WebDAV part2

One of the most difficult things to do is to persuade people that storing data on a USB stick is unnecessary, as is having a USB port on the iPad. Whilst the school is still reluctant to embrace Dropbox, easily sharing files to and from the school server is problematic, however.  Any of the reader apps that support WebDAV can overcome this. In GoodReader, for example, it is simple to see other devices on the same network as servers and add them. Providing the necessary permissions can be set up, it should make for easy integration whilst on the school network. This is something, along with AirServer, on the first week back. I think the right combination of Dropbox, Fronter and WebDAV should emerge over the course of the term.
