I really want to be able to access my computer at home from my iPad and transfer files from it to the ipad. Primarily videos, so I can have my collection converted but I can change/choose new ones wherever I am.

I've tried air video, and either my upload speed is no good, or hotel wifi isn't good. Whatever, streaming remotely isn't good enough, so I need to transfer an play locally

Air sharing and goodreader both seem to only allow 'pushing' to the ipad via a computer using a LAN address. But I won't be at my computer, just my iPad

Is there a solution for this?
 
Probably requires a jailbreak.

I've been using dropbox for files


Music and video though have been synced.
