REVIEW : Repligo 2.0

Did the PDA really need another document viewer?

"This program does exactly what it promises to do, and does it batter then its competition and at literally 1/10th the price. (Have you priced a copy of Adobe recently?) It is designed for the PDA, a real plus over any of its competitors and it is far more user friendly in file conversion.A program that is easy to use is one that you will use."

I bought ver. 2.0 when it was first released back in April. Full-featured, excellent Windows integration. Comes in very handy when I need it. I highly recommend it :approve:

If you still have a Gmail invite, I could use one:

Thanks either way.

Is the actual Repligo Viewer free? I'm not much interested in converting any documents. I just want to be able to view my current and future PDF documents with a "friendlier" program. Adobe is a pain.

Yes, you can download the free viewer for the PC or Pocket PC @ repligo.com.

It's just like adobe. The reader is free, the creator costs $.

But unlike adobe, this doesn't cost much.

That is 100% correct! It is well worth the purchase price. You never know when you might need it!! :)

But you'd still have the problem of reading PDFs on your handheld. That is what Repligo does. I have both and convert my PDFs to Repligo documents because of the poor reader app for the Pocket PC that adobe has.

You still can't read PDF files on Repligo without converting them. Adobe Reader has never been optimized for PPC. Repligo is faster, leaner. One-click landscape mode is sweet.

Everyone has his/her needs. Repligo is a must have for me because I do a lot reading on my X5. I prefer all the documents in one single format.

Ah, I see. So the Reader can ONLY read Repligo Formated Docs not plain PDFs, correct?

So I would need the converter no matter what unless someone supplies the specific document I want already fully converted to the Repligo format.

I think I'll try the trial and see if Repligo 2.0 suit my needs before I shell out my hard earned cash. ;)

Thanks for the tips guys/gals! :approve:

Worried

$29.95 for the PDF conversion software seems kind'a expensive to an old retired curmudgeon like me. I like the idea but can't see spending the money.

Hmm Ok, let me try it this way.

This program comes in two parts, one for your PC that basically replaces your need for a PDF converter, and one for your PDA that let's you view them.

You click on the little ARROW on any file your working on, and the file is automatically converted and sent to your PDA.

If you don't need this feature, then you probably don't need this program. If you use a lot of documents for work and need access to a lot of files or documents then trust me this is the file viewer for you!

I'm having a crap load of problems with this software. I'm so happy I didn't out and out buy it...

I keep getting "Printer 1796" errors! I can't convert anything and the software doesn't install properly on my Windows ME laptop.

I've looked all over Repligo's website for a fix but ther eis none for my Windows ME computer!! WTF?!?

HELP??

I dropped a suggestion into your other thread...

BTW, the real solution may turn out to be Windows 98 :)
