I would say that there are some cheap web hosters and setting up a site can
be a great thing to do for more than just what you want to do as you
mentioned.

Just use yousendit.com. Upload once, they send an email with a unique URL,
you retrieve the email while traveling, and download the file. You can
transfer it back by doing the same thing again. You only have a few days
to retrieve the file, and you can't retrieve it twice, but it should easily
work for you. Works for files up to 1GB, and it's free.

Any transfer over the net is likely to be slower than burning a CD...

Any of the remote desktop solutions will allow you to transfer files
back and forth. I use UltraVNC, which is free, configurable for any
port and available for most platforms (based on the AT&T system)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VNC

Ultra VNC has the advantage of having free encryption, although it was
a little tricky to set up. Be ready to read the howto and help files.
However, once it gets going, I have no trouble connecting via just
about any connection out there.
