Response to: "And Steve says that the updated Preview application will be the fastest PDF viewer in the world."

I have to admit, I'm not a big fan of the Acrobat plug-in either. So much so, that I usually download my PDFs then read them in Preview or Acrobat reader.


Speaking of those two apps, on thing that I miss in Preview 2.0 that I hope to see added in the new version (I haven't loaded Panther yet cause I'm still on the road) is the ability to highlight and copy specific text passages in the PDF file. So I still have to use Acrobat Reader more often than I'd prefer.
