I have been asked many times how to do this, and the answer only requires one thing: an email account. Web-accessible, hopefully. Really, all you have to do is open up the internet browser on the computer with the PDF you would like to view on your iPod touch/iPhone, and go to the email account that you have setup in the Mail application on the iPod touch/iPhone. If you have it setup in a downloaded client, it all works as long as it supports attachments. Simply compose a new message, and where it says To: put in your own email address, or the email address on your iPod touch/iPhone mail application. Now, attach the PDF file, and type in something as the subject. It would be most wise too put in the name or title of the attachment, so you can find it later.
Now, send it off. You will receive the email on your iPod touch/iPhone, and you will see the name of the PDF file in the email. Tap it to download it, and then it will open. Voilá!
You can now also rotate to view it in landscape, and pinch to zoom in and out. You can view this file even when not connected to the internet. Yay!
You might want to move this to create a folder in mail called PDFs and move all of these emails to it (just a tip).
