Apple has released an update to its MobileMe iDisk application, adding iPad support and iOS 4 multitasking capabilities. MobileMe iDisk 1.2 is now a universal app providing native support for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. The update also adds iOS 4 multitasking support for iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and third-generation iPod touch devices with not only Fast App Switching support but also background audio allowing users to stream audio files from their iDisk while using another app. Users can also now open documents from their iDisk directly in compatible third-party applications, send out shared file links using any configured e-mail account or simply copy a shared file URL to the clipboard to paste into another application. The new version also now displays the last file or directory when opening the app and includes various stability improvements over the previous version. Mobile iDisk 1.2 is available from the App Store as a free download.

Lordy. Actual Universal app. Only 4 months after I got my iPad too. Well, better late than never. Now, how about Gallery Apple?
