Just wondering is their an easy way of transferring a few music files to my phone without using cables?

I find myself downloading a few tunes but then leave them on computer as I have to go a connect up cable etc to phone and transfer over.

Can this be done OTA?

Bluetooth or install dropbox on PC and the app on the phone.

Dropbox method suits me but i'm only getting 23kB/sec upload speeds?

Surely this can do faster? Two songs taking 10 mins to upload.

You could try one of the FTP servers.

Or slightly less geeky but costs €.69

This one sets your phone up with a web browser address that you can access from your PC to upload files.

What's the best combo for pulling/pushing from PC i.e having FTP server on PC, client on phone?
