The one I am keeping

This is the 5th FTP tool that Ive tried, and its the one that I am keeping. Earlier, Ive tried iTransfer ($2.99), FTP Client Pro ($1.99), FTP 4U (free), and FTP Ready Lite (free). Some work, some dont, but all had user interfaces that are annoying, inconsistent, confusing and unnecessarily complex. It seems these guys have learned nothing from Apple, which made its name in large part based on the simplicity and elegance of its designs. This app has simple and rational design with just the features that you need -- its a file transfer program -- you dont need a clock or a theme background!

Things that could be improved: (1) the user manual is an atrocity to the English language; and (2) the menu for interacting with the Web server (nice feature!) is confusing. I would suggest something like:
Transfer files:
1.Import files from a Web URL
2.Exchange files with a computer on local area network
The latter should display a message such as
"Open a browser on the other computer and
enter this URL: http://10.1.0.xxxx:8080.
You may then use the browser to exchange
files between the computer and the iPad."
BTW, Sometimes files transferred to the local storage are automatically uploaded to the FTP server? Also, "Finished uploading" has no effect. Not clear what closes this web server.
