Previously I reviewed iPhone Explorer as well as another few alternatives to transfering data to and from your iPhone or iPod without using iTunes which were somewhat successful.
Today another Program was launched which allows you to open your iPhone asif it is a USB device to copy files to
The same developers behind the popular iPhone Explorer have launched another useful tool called Phone Disk for Mac, which can automatically detect iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch (when connected) and mounts it in Finder as a USB Disk Drive. It can mount multiple devices as local drives so that the content becomes much easier to access.
Full operations, such as, preview, open, edit, and save can be performed just like it is a USB Device connected. You can even access the files using 3rd party applications, such as, document editing, graphics editing, and more such programs.
It integrates fully in Mac OS X, once launched, you will be able to access the program from the system tray.

The main aim of the developers, however, is to make browsing iPhone in Finder easier. It supports all versions of iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch.iTunes 8, 9, or later.
A neat feature that the developers added is that images copied to the DCIM folder on the devices can be previewed directly in the Photos app. This allows you to access all the photos you’ve taken on your iPhone directly.
It is only free for a limited time (until Sept 2010) so go and download your copy at http://www.macroplant.com/phonedisk/
