Click the restore button  on any open PDF and you will see that they are
actually opening under one instance of Reader.  Also, hold down alt-tab and
you'll see all your open PDF windows plus one more for the Reader
application.

That misbehavior does NOT happen if you use Acrobat Reader under the
browser.  (It was annoying as heck before I learned that lesson.)

The other reason I like PDF versions of manuals is that I have found a way
to actually download some of those nearest and dearest to me into my Palm.
(The manuals DID get "smaller and harder to read" but I carry them with me
everywhere.)
