WiFi Disk
By Headlight Software, Inc.
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Description
Use your iPhone or iPod touch as a disk to store, view, and share files.
Easily save and view files on your iPhone using just a web browser. No special software is needed, and there is no setup at all, just start WiFi Disk and type the address shown in the yellow note into your web browser.
You can use any device with a web browser--view files on one iPhone using an iPad; a laptop or desktop computer; even a game console, refrigerator, or anything with a web browser. As the name suggests, all iPhones, devices, and computers will just need to be on the same WiFi wireless network.
A fun and intuitive startup screen lets you see file statistics, and easily find the Web and FTP addresses to use.
Touch the disk to access your files. All the usual commands are available when managing the files on your iPhone: rename, copy, move, delete, email, send files to another app, and even make a resized copy of images. View any file that is supported on the iPhone: images, doc, xls, numbers, pages, pdf, etc. Even edit text or HTML documents with the built-in text editor.
You can protect your files by adding a login, so only the people you want can view the files on your disk.
Get more options by using an FTP client to upload and download files or entire folders to your iPhone. Still no setup to do, just type in the address shown on the screen and go. With FTP, you can create/delete folders, move or rename files, and much more.
Advanced users can edit the HTML templates and customize the look of your disk when viewed in a web browser. Even store HTML pages and use it as a mini web server for demos, etc.

This is my Macgyver app
Very nice app for the purpose of acting as a virtual storage. I call it my macgyver app because I was able to use it to turn my iPhone into a "network disk". I made my phone a wifi network and then used this app to transfer files from a my laptop to my phone, without the need for tethering in the middle of beach without wifi. Afterwards, I was able to download and save the images to the phone and send them in an email using 3G on my phone.
This is also very handy when you need to unzip and view files on your iPhone or iPad from the Internet.
Only gave it four stars because it isn't "accessible" to everyone, you kind of need to know what you are doing/ know what you are looking to accomplish.
