iWork, Dropbox, and Box.net (iOS)

Did you know you can directly connect iWork apps on your iOS device to your Dropbox and Box.net accounts? It's easy using WebDAV, a set of methods based on HTTP that facilitates collaboration between users in editing and managing documents and files stored on web servers.

DropDAV (Limited) is a simple way to allow access to your Dropbox files via WebDAV. It was made it to allow the iPad Pages, Numbers, and Keynote apps to read files from and write files to Dropbox. You'll need to link your Dropbox account to this service, then choose a unique password.

NOTE: You can only upload/download files of up to 1MB in size through WebDAV (Limited).

You can connect to your Box.net account similarly, but no third-party service is needed. When connecting to Box.net the URL for the server should be set to http://box.net/dav/
