I suggest the following:  allow DOC or PDF files to be viewed before downloading.

I am sharing a folder with hundreds of DOC files related to one subject matter. The recipient may want to see the file's contents before deciding whether it's something they wish to download or not. Alternatively, the recipient may just want to read it without downloading it. This ability to read before downloading could be applied to at least the most commonly shared files - DOC, PDF, spreadsheets, etc.

The iPhone application allows you to open a DOC file before downloading it to the phone itself for offline viewing. I imagine that the web client should be able to do this as well!

Yes!! I just got pogoplug and I am shock i can not view my files except photos and movies. You should say this clearly somewhere. Perhaps I missed the place were this information is. In any case YOU NEED TO ADD this feature. It will bring you more clients!! I will talk to the whole world about you guys and your product but until then is just an ok gadget.

Hoping for it!

Adding the ability to read spreadsheets directly on my iPod Touch would be a real benefit to me.
