Publisher's description of Acrobat Reader
From Adobe Systems:Adobe Acrobat Reader for Palm OS lets you view Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files on handheld devices running Palm OS. Acrobat Reader for Palm OS software preserves the rich content of Adobe PDF files--styled text, images, and bookmarks--and adapts them for viewing on small screens. You can also search for a specific word or phrase. Acrobat Reader for Palm OS includes two components that work together. The first includes the desktop program (and conduit during HotSync), which runs on the Windows platform. It prepares PDF files for the Palm OS and transports them to the user's handheld device. The other component, the reader, is a Palm OS application designed to accommodate the characteristics of small-screen devices.
Version 2.0 runs on Macintosh and Microsoft Windows operating systems. It displays color Adobe PDF files on color Palm OS devices. It allows viewing of secured Adobe PDF files. It enables the download of Adobe PDF files from removable media.

Version: Acrobat Reader 2.0
"Does what it claims, but is useless"
Pros: PDF's are readable. Searchable. But then again so are Word files in DocumentsToGo.
Cons: Have to convert to a smaller format. Can't view PDF's downloaded off internet. Sometimes converts text next to an image to an image itself. I have no use for this program.

"useless if downloading pdf using Palm browser"
Cons: If you use your Palm's web browser to try and read a PDF on the web, this software can't display it.

Version: Acrobat Reader 2.0
Cons: Huge runtime memory requirements. Even a 400k grayscale pdf map required more than the 4Mb free memory space I had available on my ique to view. Nearly useless for small hiking maps and rudimentary UI. No support for my 320x480 screen either.
