You can get wireless storage devices, but they cost much more than a USB flash stick or SD card.
The alternative to rooting is to sell your Nexus 7 and buy a device that did NOT remove USB storage access.
If anybody knows of a better way, please post some information about it. Thanks.
Rooting is easy if you use the latest "One-Button" rooter.

Thanks; that's what I thought. Would've been a nice tablet...
