Some observations on this app on my P1i, which will be improved in the next version I guess
The good -
scrolling is smooth (doesnt blur like the inbuilt PDF +)
loads big PDF files (quickly too)
The bad -
the short cuts dont work . eg 6 for next page
no full screen
watermark on display (as noted above)
no 'next page' mini button on display (must have IMO)
no word wrap (again a must have)
no copy paste
it would be ncie if it had these too -
text viewer option for PDFs
highlighter/bookmarker

Cheers, sounds like they might implants these things in the next version which most likely will not be free any more, unless you can cope with a beta that puts watermarks. |

Well in my hones opinion, if the beta has watermark, the final release will have it too (as demo version), for which we will need to pay to remove the watermark... This is my opinion only. CUz in many cases it starts like that... free beta, free prereleases and etc.. and then suddenly BOOM - pay to download...

Its also not possible to open complex/large PDF's such as the London bus maps, which are about 4mb and have a LOT of thigns to be rendered. A smaller bus map of central London only (350kb) takes its time loading too. Smaller PDF's are no problem and load faster than the onboard PDF+ viewer. |
