Download PDF for offline viewing?

Say, I have a PDF on a website, and I want to read it and take notes while I'm on a plane.

So I'm sitting in the airport with free WiFi, and the plane is boarding. I want to download the PDF so I can continue to view it and take notes in the Notes app on the plane.

Is this possible? Or do I need a computer (to download the PDF, then transfer it to the iPad via iTunes)?

In iOS 4.2 you navigate to a PDF in Safari, and when once it has loaded it completely, you can "open it with" you apps that support PDF viewing or file management.

I usually open the PDF and save it in GoodReader or iBooks.

Perfect. I didn't see the "Open in iBooks" button at first since you have to tap the PDF to get it to show up.

Thanks!
