Adobe: Tabbing, that's one of the most important new features to me,
because I guess most UNIX users still leave their systems powered on
24x7 (and want to read a few pages here and there every day). In that
aspect Evince is not bad at all, by the way, for example it remembers
exactly on which page I have been, even if I close it and reboot. Also
Evince's Fullscreen-mode appeared to look sharper, than Acrobat Reader
8.x's one (on SPARC-Solaris). What I also noticed was, that Evince is
so much more lightweight, than fat and sluggish Acroread 8.x (SPARC).

Anyway, until now what I had been required to do in order to simulate
Tabbing (because Evince doesn't suppport it either) was opening all
the different ebooks in FireFox tabs (via the pdf plugin). This worked
well enough, with the following restriction: Your old 8.x (SPARC) and
4.x (x86) plugin did not allow me to open more than 25 documents at
once. For what reason?? I hope this artificial limit has been lifted
or - better - completely removed.
The user should be permitted to decide by himself, how many documents
his system/memory/cpu config can handle.

Thank you Adobe for supporting Solaris x86/x64 now   :))
