Cant Read Files As Advertised
This application has proven to be worthless to me. It cannot read either my .pdb or .pdf files.
I bought iSilo specifically to read .pdf files and on my Touch. The iSilo "Application Description" on iTunes states the following:
"Additional document file types [that iSilo can read] include: .pdf..."
Unfortunately, I have been unable to open even simple PDF files. When I contacted iSilo support, they responded with this message "The PDF support is limited to what the iPhone built-in PDF viewer has the ability to display."
If it is known that iSilo cannot read all standard PDF documents, then the iSilo description ought to state "SOME .pdf". Or better still, the App Store description ought to say what iSilo told me directly, that is, "PDF support is limited to what the iPhone built-in PDF viewer has the ability to display." Had I known that, I would not have bought the App.
Also, the iTunes App Store iSilo description states:
"Palm Doc... Thousands of documents, eBooks..." and the sample screen image shows both the iSilo Maual and the CIA Wold Factbook "bonus" in ".pdb" format.
Despite the graphic, iSilo has confirmed to me that iSilo for the Touch cannot read .pdb files. They have not yet responded to me as to why the graphic in the App store shows .pdb files even though the App itself cannot read them. The graphic is extremely misleading.
Given that the ISilo cannot read either type of document that I bought it for, it is useless to me. Ill still give it one star because it did upload the files to the touch as advertised even though it couldnt read them.
