Default Docs to Go on Pre

In that latest Gestures video you can see a part of the Docs to Go icon. Its at the 18 second mark in the lower left hand corner.

New Pre Video - Gestures - Sprint Gurus Forums

So it looks like it should be there for the launch.

Yes it is. It looks like they inverted the colors as compared to the pc icon (red background, white symbol).

Docs to go is great, the Adobe icon could mean two things. One, the lame possibility, is that it's just a very full featured .pdf viewer, since it's possible that docs to go won't feature pdf viewing. The much more exciting possibility is flash playback support, which would be amazing, especially if it integrated into the browser. I'm starting to hope that the reason Palm is being so draconian about not letting any details slip is that they still have some cards (pardon the pun) up their sleeves, to help upstage the iPhone in the inevitable War of the Smartphones this June.

That's not an Adobe corporate logo, that's the Adobe PDF/Acrobat logo, so I wouldn't count on that being Flash.

Maybe it works as a pdf printer too, I could see potential use for that, although nothing groundbreaking.

Also Adobe Standard has the Whitebackground icon with Red Symbol versus the Red background with White Symbol that reader has.
