Hello,

I have a Fujitsu-Siemens LOOX720 device and noticed that device battery discharges relatively quickly when I read PDF documents with Adobe Reader (Windows Mobile 2003SE).

The trouble is that device runs at turbo processor speed all the time the Adobe Reader document is viewed (even when you switch to other applications and put Adobe Reader instance to background).

I set the processor speed settings of my device to Automatic Mode and the rest of applications work as expected - they do not consume much CPU power when they are idle and the CPU is automatically switched to power saving mode. This does not happen when Adobe Reader is viewing the document and the only solution is to set the CPU settings to Power Saving mode manually. This is very inconvenient because rendering of PDF documents is too slow in power saving mode.

I hope the description is clear and it will help to fix this problem in future versions of Adobe Reader.

Thank you!
