Trying to get organized and use part of my 30G Video iPod as a portable hard drive

Specific question - I think I should be able to save .pdf files and be able to see them as part of my photos on the iPod.
I have clicked the "enable use as hard drive box" in I tunes

Can you save pdf files to an ipod and what do you do to help you find them?

Can you save other documents like word files?

Thanks

YEs you can save any thing you want on the ipod as a harddrive. for the question of being able to see the pdf files i doubt it. i have tried that myself and couldnt see them. if you have different luck let me know.

a friend at I know bypasses the school network/intranet using a linux program on his ipod so he can surf the web freely where the school network would block it

The application 'file magnet' is a few bucks from the itunes store - works well for me.

Reads word docs and stuff too.
