Why do you want it to be a mass storage device? I don’t get it.

To copy files to it? Music, documents, videos, etc?

Sure, you can use Wifi, but that's slower, more cumbersome and wastes battery life.

Manually? What century is this?

Isn’t there a way to sync? That would be strictly preferable to a mass storage device.

No, it wouldn't, exactly because that wouldn't be OS agnostic.

And who said anything about it being manual? Mass storage devices can be synced. Mine certainly are.

Meh. Just because some geeky stuff is missing doesn’t make WP7 not a great OS. As if anyone cares about Linux.
1. Plug in.

2. Drag and Drop files.

That's geeky? I disagree.

That’s a sucky way of transferring stuff. I’m not sure why anyone would want to do that to themselves.
