iPad PDF reading app

    Hey folks

    Trying to find a good ipad PDF reading app which allows you to sort your PDFs into appropriate folders, is easy to navigate through and can also allow you to bookmark your pages.

    I know of Goodreader (anyone use -thoughts?), and I am currently using Dropbox to organise my pdfs but would rather not rely on internet connectivity in order to access my content.

    any suggestions?

    There's a pretty decent collection in the App store, I've just gone back to using iBooks and saving all my documents there on the shelf as PDFs. I'd give it try first.

    I've been using goodreader on iPhone 4 for ages. Find it excellent and is updated frequently.

    Papers is good. You can import from dropbox, if they are in folders Papers will create a folder in the library for it, alternatively you can create your own folders. Just make sure there are no corrupted files or it will just read "error" and won't import anything.

    I'm using iAnnotate. It was about €6 in the app store, but you can create folders very easily and move files around and all that, it's pretty good. :)

    I've used 'Files' for a while. Pretty good, you can do folders etc in it. Has its own browser as well.

    Good reader is perfection in my opinion.
