Beamreader is a cheaper alternative, but PDF To Go pulls the text out and word wraps it so that the user doesn't have to scroll around on a magnified page to read text.

The rip-off is having to purchase the entire Docs to Go suite which I have absolutely no use for. I just like to read PDFs when I'm on the bus.

To put it in perspective, it's still cheaper than eOffice. To each their own, I suppose.

I've used Repligo's reader for a few months now and it works just fine. I can download to my media card, view, copy text. Fairly reasonable cost also.

Beamreader isn't out of beta so there's no price point yet, but I don't like it.

Repligo prices at 29.95

I see eoffice at 29.95

DataVis, in a monumental act of hubris, prices Documents to Go at 49.95 for a year or 69.99 for a non-expiring license.

I recognize you get what you pay for, but geesh.

eOffice used to be $99.95 for the whole suite and it didn't work that great. Docs To Go is far from what eOffice used to be. I haven't tried eOffice in a couple of years.

I was able to get DTG PDF reader with the trial.

And as JC stated DTG has the best PDF reader. I have almost all of my work info on PDF, so I have tried all of them and this one is the best.

I agree that DTG has a superior PDF reader. It's unfortunate that its not a stand-alone product. The cost for the mandatory package is just not worth it for people that simply wish to read PDFs.

[John Clark]

Yeah, would be nice if they offered it ala carte.

That's exactly why I went with RepliGo Reader - it offers the same features as PDF to Go (specifically "reading mode"), and more, and I don't need all the other stuff that comes with Docs to Go Premium.

Sweet. Looks like that's the way to go.
