[Camino] Patching quicktime plugin to show PDFs possible?

[stridey at gmail.com]

Yeah, there's currently no Intel-native solution.  You can run Camino  
in Rosetta, which will allow you to use the Schubert PDF plugin, or  
make do with downloading PDFs.  As far as I know, Quicktime has no  
PDF reading capabilities.

Cheers, Stridey
