I was surprised and happy to see that the RepliGo Reader interface was simple yet extremely intuitive. Once I agreed to the terms and conditions, I was directly taken to the menu where there was an option called “Open a file”.

I opened a rather large file (5MB) and after a few seconds was surprised to see how well the images and text rendered on my screen in the same manner they would on a larger PC screen.

Since the file in question was a press release of a gadget there were plenty of images. However RepliGo Reader handled the images quite well and I was also impressed by the image and text quality.

Then I decided to make use of the search option and entered “release date” and clicked on the “Match Case” option. The searched word was highlighted in the document in a few seconds without any system lagging.

The different zoom levels also worked like advertised and I faced no problems barring once where the application froze for a couple of seconds.

That's about it for the application, it's very simple, yet very effective.

Verdict
Rating Good

Many business users deal with PDF files on an almost daily basis and at times we have all been frustrated about how the BlackBerry handles the files. However with the RepliGo Reader, viewing and storing PDF files is a breeze thanks to the application’s UI and fast performance.

The $19.95 may be high priced for some however personally I feel it’s justified given the fact that RepliGo Reader is a full-fledged PDF reader application.
