How to view PDF's on your iPad

I don't know about you, but one of the first things I wanted to do was load up some of my PDF's onto my iPad...Right out of the box, this is not possible - but with Good Reader - a .99 app, you will be reading in style on that 9.7 inch IPS display in a matter of minutes. Check out my video review to learn more.

What is that base your iPhone is attached to? I've been looking for a charger/base instaed of having it lying on my desk. Thank you in advance.

@Whyteshooz Hey, that's the Griffin Simplifi dock... It's a hub, iPhone dock and memory card reader.. Overall, it's a cool accessory.

I have a question, say i bought Good Reader on my ipod, and now i bought iPad, i don't want to pay the 99c again (for example) how do i reinstall Good reader on my ipad? Do i need to buy it again(license issue) or there is a way to install on more than one device? sorry if it's stupid question.

@ame7272 Hey, not a stupid question at all. You just need to sync the app with your iPad. As long as you are logged in under the same iTunes account it should present the app as an option to sync to your iPad. Hope this helps

Why not use iBooks as a PDF Reader??

@Tech582 This video was actually made before that was possible. Right now - iBooks, great solution. Thanks for watching!

2 Questions!

how good does the ipad with this app handle large pdf files containing lots of images, text, tables, etc?

I use a PC not MAC, does the ipad syncronize well with that?

Thnxs

[Kraghtnar]

I just have an iBooks installed and when I want to copy something onto my iPad, I just simply drag it into my iPad's name in iTunes. It works for me.
