Right, the issue is that our HTTP support is implemented as an attempt to parse Apache directory listing HTML output. It almost certainly won't work with other web servers and Apache has already changed their output on us at least once.
Nick (PocketSword) graciously provided the original support when he was having trouble with FTP access over iOS. Bishop uses SWORD's FTP support over iOS with no issues that I've had. It could have been a network provider filtering out FTP traffic when Nic was doing development. Not sure. This is one real world advantage to having another protocol available: if network providers babysit their users and try to filter their data for them (which would tick me off if my provider did that).
