As much as I like and heavily use bibdesk, for me the critical application to
have on the iPad is a pdf manager that allows handwriting annotation of pdf
files -- something like the PDF Annotator on windows tablets
(http://ograhl.com/en/pdfannotator/). If there is the integration with bibtex,

Beat me to it! The iPad would be a splendid base for (an integrated?)
Bibdesk and Skim. There's a iPhone app called GoodReader, which manages
PDFs quite nicely, and that will work on the iPad, but you can't
annotate and the indexing is non-existent. But you can see the files.

This is an interesting discussion. For me the most critical requirement is to
have an annotation application that uses ink. I need to be able to jot down
margin notes by hand rather than typing on a window. Then the integration of
this pdf previewer/annotator and bibdesk would be great. Some

My guess is that the iPad would basically require a new application; BibDesk
is heavily oriented and optimized for usage on a laptop or desktop system.
BTW, if BibDesk had its own PDF viewer, would it be possible to make use of
the hyperlinks for citations which are present in many PDFs? If one of
these links is clicked, I think it opens a journal webpage, but could it be
made to search for that hyperlink within the BibDesk library
I think that it would be more like Skim than BibDesk, or rather that BibDesk
would be like iTunes to a Skim-on-iPad, synchronizing (perhaps a subset of)
PDFs to the iPad, with reading (but maybe not writing) of metadata, but with
full annotation and highlighting capabilities. The advantage here
