Wow this is so exciting!!

I wonder why there is no mention of being able to annotate documents (hi-lite, place bookmarks, notes etc). I suppose we can use the Android Acrobat Reader for those functions if the BB10 app is the crippled PlayBook version.

I don't see "Search"

....or Bookmarks ect.

I really HOPE BB10 has a WAY better Adobe Reader then the PB......

Probably because there isn't an actual document open to search or bookmark.

I hope this app is able to open PDF's

Adobe Reader is pretty bad on every platform. It is bloatware of the worst kind and I uninstall it when possible. Fortunately there are always replacements. My choices are FoxIt on the PC, Goodreader on iOS and eZPDF on Android. The built in preview on MacOS is adequate.

Question about BB10. The screenshots seem to imply that Adobe Reader will be the default app launched when you open PDF attachments for emails. Does BB10 allow you to change the default app for a given file type?

There better be a way to select a different default app. PlayBook has QPDF and is good but you can't select it to be the default PDF reader. The invocation framework allows application and mime association so that should allow us to de-select Adobe. Adobe just doesn't work well which is strange.

I'll be happy enough if it can open large, password pretected files. That will do it for me.

I really do hope that for BB10, RIM will improve on the version of Adobe Reader available on the Playbook. I think it's fair to say that the PB version is "limited" and has few fans given the numerous posts (rants!

) on the Playbook forums.

Lack of a search facility is my main bug-bear.

Actually, It can open e-magazine and my protected credit card billing details. I have the page where my pdf documents lay in. But, I want u all to guess, what you can get from it. Truly, from all Adobe Reader across different platform app, bb10 is the best.

Sure, you can open your pdf documents also from docs to go at bb10.

Sorry I guess my question wasn't clear. How do you view a PDF email attachment in DocsToGo?

as usual, download it first, and open it via file manager. when we access the file, there is option whether we want to open it in docs to go or adobe reader. CMIIW.
