The new, feature-rich iFlow Reader™ provides an exceptional reading and shopping experience with a gorgeous and intuitive user interface that establishes a new benchmark for eBook reading enjoyment. With its seamless support of manual scrolling, trackball scrolling, virtual paging, and the silky smooth tilt-controlled AutoScrolling, the iFlow Reader lets the user read the way that they prefer for the material at hand. Content for the iFlow Reader is available from the iFlowBookstore, developed in partnership with the Ingram Content Group. The iFlowBookstore contains the newest titles from top publishers, including Random House, Hachette Book Group, HarperCollins, Penguin Group, Simon & Schuster, McGraw Hill, John Wiley and Sons, and many others. “Our goal was to make the best eBook application anywhere because we saw it as the only way for us little guys to compete against the Goliaths that currently dominate this marketplace,” states Dennis Morin, one of the founders of BeamItDown Software. “Adobe has provided an extraordinary technology platform for us to build on. Because of this, and because we made the user experience of buying and reading eBooks our first priority, we firmly believe our iFlow Reader application is a huge improvement over everything else on the market today. Others may have more books, and occasionally lower prices on a particular book, but none can match the ease of use, feature set, and the beautiful build quality of our application.” The Adobe Reader Mobile SDK is a software development toolkit developed by Adobe that provides EPUB and PDF rendering capabilities for handheld devices and smartphone applications. Device developers can take advantage of a mobile-optimized software engine, designed to deliver high-performance, high-quality scalable document rendering across a wide range of resource-limited embedded devices. Adobe Reader Mobile technology maximizes compatibility with the latest specifications and interoperability with Adobe products, and supports digital content copy-protected by Adobe Content Server (Adobe DRM). Hundreds of publishers, libraries, retailers and solution providers are distributing and managing eBooks using Adobe Content Server and secured with Adobe DRM. All of this content can be read by applications built using the RMSDK. The Adobe Reader Mobile SDK from Datalogics includes reference platform implementations for iOS, Android, Linux and Windows Mobile.
