If it is like other Android devices then you can plug it into your computer and have it appear as an external hard drive that you can arbitrarily copy/modify files on:

You may need to select "Mount as disk drive" by pulling down the drawer thing from the top of the screen, or you may get a popup when you plug it in or something like that.

Once you have done that you can find the 'sdcard' folder and create a new folder in it called 'pd'. You can then unzip the files on your computer and copy them into sdcard/pd that you have just created. After that unmount the drive as you normally would with an external hard drive.

Cheers,

Chris.
