Ipod Touch And Manuals

[Rulland]

Evening Guys,

Quicky for you all-I'm going to transfer all my manuals etc to my ipod touch-obviously I will require a pdf reader app for the gizmo-anyone suggest any, use any-I know I have most off the stuff in my superb brain anyway! but just in case I need to refer to external sources!-ipod boots up quicker than me lappy and is more portable!.

Guys.

Richard.

Mr H I'll have a gander,

just want something that is easier if I'm out and about and get a call-I don't take lappy everywhere-shopping blah blah etc, but had a few instances where a shout has come in and would have been handy to have quicker access to me database mate.

With the iPhone you can already read pdfs that are sent as an attachment so it would seem there is a pdf reader already built in, I would presume the iPod is the same. The problem using the iPod or iPhone maybe the lack of a File manager to navigate to your files on the device. I may be over complicating this but you could convert them to iBooks format and use the ibook reader which is pretty decent.

Actually no need to convert them with the latest versions of iTunes and iBooks, see below:

You can download iBooks for free from the App store.
