yeah you cant format PC disks on the amiga it dont work properly, you have to do em on PC first, also HD-3.5" Disks dont format that well to 720k. Your best bet is to get the high density drive for the Amiga so you can use the 1.44Mb disks (blimey they are still being used today?)
There are some telnet clients that can send via the serial ports too, I would look out for these as it might make your life easier. PC's these days are waay to fast for transfering sometimes you may encounter buffering problems.
Personally I would go the 3.5" disk route, you can format HD's as 720 if you put tape over the hole on the disk (not the copy protect bit the other one) they will be recognised as 720k then :)
