I'm curious how this compares to PDF X-Change Viewer (speed, features,...).
Anyone care to comment?

Their free reader is a beta version so they want feedback in return for
use.From CNet's review:
"In testing, Nitro's functionality kept pace with its comprehensive
toolset. When you install it, it will ask if you want to contribute
anonymous usage data. Users are opted in automatically, so if you don't
like contributing don't install on autopilot. Nitro PDF Reader Free does
more by default than any free PDF reader currently available, does
precisely what it advertises, and does it unobtrusively, rocketing it to
the top of the PDF pack."

Company's take

All in all sounds like a nice program,just watch when you install and
check all the options when you run it.

Seems it was a problem with the posting server,no clock problems here.The
server kept dropping connections earlier.

Just what the world needs . . . another PDF viewer.

Its a little bit more than a viewer Frank. It claims to convert umpteen
documents formats into PDF, as well as being a PDF editor. In other
words, it has the potential to replace the collective (PDF X-Change
Viewer, doPDF, PDF Editor, ...). Pity it is still in beta mode.
