Like many before who cannot get Adobe Reader for the Palm to recognize PDF files, I have found the problem.
Seems that Reader is preinstalled into the Palm Treo not knowing whether the user will be Mac or Windows. So they left out the AcroPlugin rendering the Reader crippled on the Palm.

Solution:
1.- Delete Adobe Reader from the Palm.
2.- Download from Adobe Website Acrobat Reader for Palm OS.
3.- Launch the installer. It will ask you to select "Hotsync" from the Palm handheld. It will then install Reader for the Palm, Installs all of the appropriate Plugins on the Mac and will:

Install the application, Mac Version of "Palm Reader for Palm OS" This is the Mac application that prepares any PDF file on your Mac to transfer to the Palm. Place this application into your applications folder. The application itself is self explanitory and can run independently from the Mac Hotsync or Desktop applications.

My Palm Treo 650 now reads any PDF file and works great!

Cheers
