[QUOTE="IronWolf, post: 5653580, member: 21076"] While you can read PDFs with iBooks, GoodReader brings a lot to the table - especially if you are running a game form your iPad. The ability to annotate and add notes to the PDF is awesome! When I was running Kingmaker I would make notes on various critters, highlight special abilities so I didn't forget to use them and lots of custom bookmarks to let me jump from one section to another very quickly (i.e. back to the map from the area description and such). The tabbed access is also great as you can have a rulebook open in one tab and the module open in the other tab and switch back and forth quite quickly between PDFs. I'm not sure if iBooks does pre-caching, but GoodReader does and it makes page turns of the graphic laden Paizo PDFs quite quick even on my generation 1 iPad Coupled with getting rid of the need to connect the iPad to the computer to transfer PDFs is great as well. I can just make sure I have them in my Dropbox and even if I am at our gaming location and find myself without a book I can just download it on the fly. [/QUOTE]
