I feel like this is obvious, but I can not send coin to the address on the hard disk when it is not running on the computer right? whenever you wanna make a deposit, you load up the disk, re install btc client again, deposit your coins from one wallet to the savings wallet, and then copy it back on the disk?

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Is there any way to get a wallet onto an iPhone or iPad?

You can use Blockchain's wallet on your iPhone via this app:

It is paranoid. Make a copy to flash/cd/cloud and remove wallet from your PC. It's will be enough, imho.

How legit is it to use say, coinbase.com as my wallet? it seems mighty convenient for a user on the go.

You can send the coins to an offline wallet because the coins aren't really stored on the computer but in the blockchain.

Just curious, what are peoples opinions on the security of online wallets like blockchain.info and some of the others?

blockchain.info has good security and a good record for an online wallet. But I still wouldn't trust them to store anything significant. As the old saying goes, if you want something done right - do it yourself.

I have a couple of coins in my mobile wallet, more in my PC online wallet and the majority in my offline wallet accessed via armory.  This is a brilliant wallet that allows paper back ups and true offline operation, without risking anything in that wallet (and no, I have no affiliation with Armory- I just like the app).
