Re: The Game Manuals on Ipad/Iphone
Alan, it seems that iOS is unable to handle encrypted PDF files. I just tried opening the decryption test on my iPhone 4 without using iBooks and it didn't even give me an option to input a password - just a blank screen.

Personally, I like to keep the game manuals on my iPhone just so that I know I always have a copy with me should I need to reference them during build or some other time. When we go to a competition I always bring a paper copy in a binder because I've found that Referees aren't big fans of reading rules from a 3.5" screen.
