Leo - I had a similar issue with
http://conceptdev.blogspot.com/2009/10/monotouch-isoflair-20.html (worked on
sim, failed on device)

//UIImage img = UIImage.FromFile (ImagePath); // WHY does this break???
UIImage img = UIImage.FromFileUncached(ImagePath); // BUT this works???

and found FromFileUncached() worked where FromFile() didn't...


Geoff - when I found a workaround I stopped looking for the cause. I might
go back and check to see if there is anything obvious in the Device output.

cd
