Let me add my voice to those who disagree. Almost every power user I know is very file manager centric, regardless of the platform. And regardless of how exotic the solutions get, even syncing (and man am I on board with transparent syncing!), I still find file managers very, very valuable. I would hope that MeeGo tablet edition ends up with a very powerful one.
