This is surprising to know many geeks here did not know the default browser in iPhone does not allow downloading(except PDF,MS office files)
But there are browsers which can download absolutely anything even without JB.
Firstly, I do not belong from the herd, where people bash iDevices without even using them.
But what does apple wants to prove by restricting downloads ? Being a geek if I was not able to do then I seriously wonder how many normal people would be able to do it ?
I and everybody understands that Apple wants to alienate itself from windows world but at this cost ? No please.
Apple has been famous for plethora of issues causing bad user experience from ages. I don't know how people term iOS as "simple" ?

de-facto mini-USB socket, Apple, making her arse fatter & fatter by sitting on a pile of cash, spends billions to "invent" a "revolutionary" socket. Seriously this logic is out of my understanding. Think of the end user. How is it a feasible option to use an alien socket which is much costly and not easily available ? Apple could have reduced it's costs by opting for the former, but NO, it's Apple, that too of "
blue color, not red".
> I very well remember, when iPhone was launched long back, a very trivial yet one of the most important functions of the phone, forwarding a msg, was not possible. Now can any one answer what Apple execs thought before approving this "feature" ?
iTunes can be a big PITA,but if you have a large library(not talking about libraries with 1000 GB of pirated stuff)it can be helpful.
I can think of no condition where iTunes can be helpful.
@dashing.sujay,try ifunbox,it is free and better than disk aid.
My self-respect doesn't allows me to ask the phone and fail "once again".
Bye Apple, I'm better with Oranges.
WHAT?
