You probably won't be able to do much with the book you just purchased, but you can still download Adobe Reader 7 and use that instead for any other PDF books you might get. |
Actually the latest digital editions 1.5 is much better and offers a DRM policy that is not locked to one machine. It is worth checking out as it supports ePUB as well. (Much better than the old one)
