Btw, look on the bright side, this creates the perfect window of opportunity for a potential competitor.

Afaik, the pdf format is open to developers, so anyone can take on killing adobe reader with a better product. Again, it's another window of opportunity, till Adobe figures it out that 'hey, if we solve everything on the whiners' list, we become GOD'.</p> Any thoughts? Reply to this comment.
