But the reason for this not being totally obvious, is that Apple///Jobs wants to remove the conventional view on dealing with files, and only deal with the data itself. Like the way iTunes and iPhoto also deals with things.

Right. I'm not saying files can't be added to the iPad, just that Apple does not do a lot to facilitate the process. In terms of vulnerability to a virus, a file that is added to an iOS device with no knowledge of the device user seems unlikely. If you can convince a user to seek out a file that's harmful to iOS, put it in their Dropbox folder, then download and activate the file on the iOS device, then there's no anti-virus software that will protect that user.
