More document readers: a user's perspective (continued)
TealDoc is worth its $16.95. For only $3 more, QED gives you editing capabilities and some faster operations. If you need your reader to edit documents, QED is the choice. It also gives you the chance to rewrite the classics!
However, as I haven't completely outgrown the Memo Pad, I'm leaning towards TealDoc. I prefer its more standard interface and its ability to toggle full screen with a tap, set backup flags for all documents, change find directions, and, as I do lots of my Palm handheld reading at night, having highly readable dialog boxes and getting to bookmarks by tapping an icon. I also value its ability to privatize all documents in one step (thus preventing other readers from deleting them).
I hope this review proved useful to you. Please email any corrections, suggestions, or compliments to stedman@binghmaton.edu.
Happy reading!
