Some of the ways I can think of -

  1. Send your file as mail attachement as @Akshay points out.
  2. Use Gamekit framework in iOS to transfer data between iOS devices without internet.
  3. You could use Bluetooth, but essentially I think GameKit uses that. so you might as well go with gamekit instead of (re)defining your own protocol...

Happy coding...

You can compose a new email using MFMailComposeViewController and attach the file. 

MFMailComposeViewController* controller = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];

    controller.mailComposeDelegate = self;

    [controller addAttachmentData:[NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:path] mimeType:mimeType fileName:[path lastPathComponent]]; //path is the path to your file

    [self presentModalViewController:controller animated:YES];
    [controller release];

For iOS 5.0 or later, you could use iCloud.

HTH,

Akshay
