[sdt=12318]A month ago[/sdt], I mentioned the PDF creating software - Adobe Acrobat 8 was released and available in Universal Binary.
Today, Adobe released Adobe Reader 8 (previously known as Adobe Acrobat Reader). It's a Universal Application, (actually, they provide both PowerPC and Intel versions for Mac users.) The official application to read PDF documents is now available for Intel-based Mac users.
Adobe Reader 8 enables you to securely view, print, search, sign, and verify the authenticity of Adobe PDF files. With Reader 8, you can easily collaborate on a document with the new Start Meeting conferencing button. Additionally, Reader 8 features a simpler, streamlined interface with customizable toolbars.

After a quick test with Adobe Reader 8, I like the new interface, and noticed it's faster than previous version, however, I am not sure if it's faster than Apple's built-in Preview.
Adobe Reader 8 requires:
Mac
PowerPC G3 or later or Intel-based Macintosh
Mac OS X 10.4.3 or later
128MB of RAM and 110MB of hard disk space
Safari 2.0.2
