I avoid Apple products like the plague, so perhaps I'm missing some info here, but what's wrong with simply getting the user to download the file in the normal fashion?

Hi all, I'm asking around the traps on a question which has come up at work.

We want to develop an iPad app to will allow users to download from a
website (like a synch) large quantities (hundreds of MB) of documents
(pdf and word) for reading offline.

Is the offline storage tool in HTML5 designed for this sort of heavy lifting?
are there storage limitations?
on an iPad?

I've found a few examples of the tool in action and read bits and
pieces, but it all seems to be about storing small chunks of data, not
humunguous great whumps of it.
