Save game compatibility

So, in the FAQ it says that:

"Will game saves be compatible across all platforms?
Yes."

Does this mean that you can start a game on one platform and then continue that same game on another platform? Or in other words, could I get BG for PC, start a game, and then transfer that save game to the iPad when it comes out? (Yes, I'm impatient :))

Or do they just mean basic file compatibility without the support functions that'd be necassary for this to work on iPad and android (I think - don't know how much access you have to the file system there).

    You can transfer savegames to and from any platform.

    My understanding is that, eventually, one will not need to transfer files at all. One will be able to save to (and load from) a cloud solution. Whether or not you will be able to manually move your save to the iPad is a question I can't really answer. On my android, I can access the basic file structure, but I'm not sure if one can do the same on an iPad. If one can, it should be a simple matter of just placing the file in the right place.
