Good tip but I would not call this a "pen drive". I think most people would associate "pen drive" with a device that connects and transfers data via USB using the OS native file browser. The Air Sharing solution will allow either: (a) transfer over WiFi (but not USB)using the OS native file browser; OR (b) transfer over USB but only using iTunes.
