I couldn't agree more. The HTML docs are a major pain, even the old Oracle Book documentation format was *much* better than HTML. And the java information navigator is way too slow. IMHO, HTML was not made for documents of this size and complexity. I think Oracle would do best if they included the pdf docs as well for *all* products.
