GoodReader for iPhone and iPad updated with improved handwriting engine and more

Posted: 09 Jan 2012 10:06 AM PST

GoodReader, arguably the best PDF reader for iOS, was updated over the weekend for the iPhone and iPad with several new additions.

• new freehand drawing engine (PDF Annotations) produces smoother handwriting
• swiping a PDF page to the right and to the left with three fingers can now be used as "Go Back" and "Go Forward" gestures within a single file. Now you don’t have to turn the menu on to use the “Go Back” button.
• TXT editor now starts editing close to a viewing position
• Bonjour server records can now be quickly moved to the permanent "Connect to Server" location with a special button. This will allow to use advanced connection options, like changing the default server path and default login name.

Aside from the improved drawing engine and swipe gestures to move between pages, the iPad version has also introduced PDF Page Lock, a function which prevents accident taps and unwanted page turns. The update is free for those who already own the $4.99 app, and if you’re looking for a highly reliable and capable PDF reader, GoodReader won’t disappoint.

iPad survives 100,000 feet fall from outer space

Posted: 09 Jan 2012 08:26 AM PST

No doubt we’ve all worried about accidentally dropping our iPads whilst using it. But rest assured, it’s a whole lot more resistant  to sudden impacts – at least that’s what G-Form wants you to believe. Promoting their  Extreme Edge protector for the iPad, G-Form drops the iTablet from 100,000 feet up to see if the device can survive the extreme drop. Surprisingly, the iPad’s still in pretty good shape, and more importantly, it continues to work after the free fall.
