The Adobe Palm PDF viewer requires that you run a buggy, overpriced, 
insecure product from Microsoft.  It does NOT display PDFs natively on 
the Palm.  There's a Windows piece that "simplifies" the PDF for viewing 
on the Palm.

This Palm PDF viewer 
<http://www.metaviewsoft.de/en/Software/PalmOS/Freeware/Other/> displays 
PDFs natively from the SD card in your Palm.
