WPD and powershell

I was trying to create a script that would list file names on a WPD device, ie. a tablet. Then copy some files over to it. However I cannot find away for powershell to access a WPD device. Has anyone done this? The tablet doesn't get assigned a drive letter it just shows up under portable devices in explorer.
 
I saw the API, and I did find some example code on the web for listing WPD devices in powershell. But, I couldn't find any that actually did anything with it like, move files around.
 
Wait so you cannot simply plug a windows phone device in and open an explorer and copy files to and from it? Really?
 
This was actually with a Nabi 2 running android. I have no clue about a windows phone. It shows up in explorer and that is how I copy files around. I was just wanting a script to do it for me. Figured powershell would work, and having never used it thought it would be fun to learn a little about it. I never imaged it would be this difficult. The complications started when I realized windows doesn't assign it a drive letter. Which sent me to reading about WPD and trying to figure out how to get powershell to see files on a WPD.
