Adobe Reader 2.0 For The Pocket PC
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readerforppc.html
Adobe has released an updated version of its Reader product for the Pocket PC platform.
New features include:
� Faster performance (Well, we know it couldn't be slower than 1.0!) 
� Mobile data entry: Submit form data using handheld devices over a wireless connection. If you are working offline, the data is temporarily stored, then submitted once a connection is established. Send forms by e-mail or directly to the destination server using a cradle or cable.
� Wireless printing: Print directly from a handheld device to a remote printer.*
� Slide show viewing: Easily share Adobe PDF slide shows generated by Adobe Photoshop� Album software on handheld devices in portrait or landscape mode.
� Downloading digital editions: Download digital editions of your favorite books in PDF format to handheld devices and read them anywhere. I would assume this means you can now buy DRM locked Reader ebooks from online retailers and read them on your Pocket PC.
Like all versions of Reader, it is free and it is large. The English installer is 13.5MB, so I suggest you plant this on your storage card.

Why is it that Adobe products, no matter what platform they run on, handle like a 1964 Lincoln Continental?
I'll stick with Repligo (Hell I paid for it) for the time being...

Bleh... If a Pocket PC app is over ~1.5MB, it better be da*n good, imo. Acrobat Reader just doesn't make it there. Give me RepliGo anyday.

I have to agree, slow and klunky.

Here is how I handle PDFs on my iPAQ
Open in Acrobat > Convert to Repligo > put on iPAQ
10x smaller 10x faster. :wink:

I agree, helps Acrobat, but not Photoshop CS or Illustrator CS...

I have tried 5 times to install this on a hx4700 with no success. Every time I am greeted with the message "Acrobat Reader 1.0 is installed. It must be removed first etc..." This is not the case as it has been uninstalled. Could it be that the ClearVue PDF viewer is interfering?
More importantly, is it really worth bothering to install this monster when Repligo performs so well?
