Coming up at 1 PM EDT: A special TUAW Talkcast with Dave Howell

Please join us today at 1PM Eastern Daylight Time for a live TalkShoe audio chat with Avatron Software CEO, Dave Howell. Avatron is the maker of "Air Sharing" for the new iPad. Air Sharing, which has been around for some time on the iPhone and iPod touch, is one of the best selling file viewing and management utilities around. We'll be discussing how and why the revised version of this app really understands and takes advantage of the iPad's built in features like document sharing.

When: Today, 27 April 2010 at 1PM Eastern, 10AM Pacific
Who: Anyone who's interested in iPad features and applications
How: To participate on TalkShoe, you can use the browser-only client, the embedded Facebook app, or the classic TalkShoe Pro Java client; for maximum fun, call in. For the web UI, just click the "TalkShoe Web" button on our profile page at 1 PM EDT today. To call in on regular phone or VoIP lines (take advantage of your free cellphone weekend minutes if you like): dial (724) 444-7444 and enter our talkcast ID, 45077 -- during the call, you can request to talk by keying in *8.

If you've got a headset or microphone handy on your Mac, you can connect via the free Gizmo or X-Lite SIP clients; basic instructions are here. Talk with you then!

Update: Informal TUAW poll — what file formats should Avatron add to Air Sharing in the next edition? I know that we're voting for better AVI support. Add your requests to the comments and we'll send 'em on over to Dave Howell in a few days.

I dunno I much prefer Filemagnet to Air Sharing. :-/. Have tried both and FM is much more user friendly.

someone ask about thumbnail images for photos. When viewing a lot of pics just downloaded from a camera into a Mac, all of them have almost identical names. So finding the right photo with AirSharing can be a real pain.

I would like to hear how Air Sharing compares to Goodreader for the iPad. I own the iPhone app of Air Sharing Pro and don't really want to pay for it again for the iPad. Goodreader was the first app I downloaded on the iPad and it was only a buck. It's very similar to Air Sharing. I'm sure there are differences; so, I would like to hear the developer talk about why his app is better and worth the extra money.

If anyone who owns both for the iPad cares to chime in, I would love to hear your thoughts.
