"I just got an iPad. Which PDF viewer works best for all our manuals?"

GoodReader is the bees knees. I've got manuals, "wallet numbers", ALPA calendar, LIDO, airport briefings, metro maps for layover cities, bid packs, etc, etc, etc. I bought the other/more expensive app that guys were using (iannotate). It was supposed to highlight better, among other things. GoodReader has had several improvements and I still like it better (maybe just more familiar). You can markup charts with circles, boxes, arrows, freehand and select the line color from color wheel, then quickly review highlighted info preflight. I download LIDO for each trip and it takes less than 10 minutes with high speed. Get someone to show you how to "move" and "rename" files and everything else is intuitive.
