App to sync pdf's wirelessly to Ipad/iphone?
I am trying to make it so where my users can view PDF's "on the go". There are new PDF's added to this folder every day, and my users travel a lot and may go a week without being in the office to sync to their computer. Is there a way to so that the Ipad can be wirelessly synced over 3g/4g with that folder?

Just to clarify how this works:
If I invite vallis to Dropbox and he accepts, I get a bonus 500 megs on my free account (up to a max of 16gb I think) but vallis doesn't get the bonus.
When you share a folder with another Dropbox user, that user has to have sufficient capacity on their account in order to see it. So if I have 3 gigs of PDFs in a folder and the user I am trying to share with only has 2 gigs, it won't work all that well.

Once your friend registers and installs Dropbox, both of you will receive bonus space.
Basic (free) accounts get 500 MB per referral and can earn up to 16 GB, for a total of 18 GB.
Pro (subscription) accounts get 1 GB per referral and can earn up to 32 GB of extra space.
They changed it then (GOOD)! It used to be one-way...
Dropbox is an outstanding service. Wouldn't be without it, although in this case an Evernote account would do the job too. Free limit 60MB per month of uploads, Premium 1GB.

I have used it for a couple of days now, it works great!

As mentioned, using the invitation (referrals) system is the way to go. Each invitation from you to your staff members—or between them—will give both parties an extra 500MB of free storage. See here:
