If all AirDrop does is make something that is trivial to set up even more
trivial, I guess it's something that iOS users want and need.

But, um ... er ... I do Bluetooth and WiFi file transfer ad hoc services
all the time ... and , um, it's so trivial to set up that I would laugh if
you told me you *needed* to make it easier than it already is.

SO if that's all that Airdrop ad hoc services does, then um, ok, er ...
(you iOS guys sure are *needy* fellows)...
