for now

Hi,
I don't understand if "for now" is used the same way in Italian...
I think it means "temporarily" and indicates that a certain statement only refers to a preriod of time around now, and implies that something is likely to change in the future. Could you tell me more about it, with some examples? Mine are:

I'm got going format my harddisk for now.
I'll leave it there for now, maybe I'll take care of it later on.
I'm just a student for now, I'm no expert on that yet.


Thanks Emotion: smile
