I, too, have been only using tools.ietf.org/html/* for viewing docs
for a while and love how well it works. Kudos to whomever put that
site together. The ability to jump to sections of the doc is great,
but more so to quickly see other revs of the document or links to RFCs
that may have updated or obsoleted the doc. Thanks for making that
available to all of us.

P.S. Richard, yes, EPUB is great for the eBook readers... next I
suppose you're going to want RFCs and I-D's in EPUB? :-) (And no, I
am NOT really trying to stir up the recently concluded chapter in the
ongoing IETF document format wars...)

For RFCs and I-Ds, I use tools.ietf.org/html/rfc#### and
tools.ietf.org/html/draft-XXXX. An unsung feature of that tool is
that it both displays AND *prints properly*, using CSS to control
pagination. (It's a workaround for what you're complaining about,
but it works.)

No browser including Safari displays ASCII text well and that has

drafts to actually read them ( sorry HP ). If the app could convert
the
ASCII to something that allow for different fonts and auto
repagination
display that would be totally wonderful. That function alone has
been one of
the huge drivers for tablet devices as Amazon's own market analysis
has
determined. Its very very age skewed to the over 40 crowd. That is
why I'm
totally sold on the .epub format.

Display RFCs?
Doesn't this new toy of yours already have a browser?
I was idly thinking of this a few days ago. An app for the iPad that
will sync across RFCs and I-Ds for offline viewing would be quite
useful.
