Do you have a USB flashdrive?

Networked file system (e.g. Samba/SMB), File Transfer Protocol (FTP), 
whatever works for you. pysamba is available from sourceforge and there 
is ftplib in the standard library. For most purposes though, you could 
just setup a network shared directory and drag and drop files from the 
file manager.
