I have a Verizon XV67000 and tried installing Adobe reader for the pocket pc. I just got a generic error message saying the installation was unsuccessful. Has anyone out there been able to install it on their 6700 or Mobile 5.0 device? If so, any recommendations?

Hello,
I think there is an alternative called Xpdf that many people like better anyway. Adobe's Reader hasn't been updated in years.

I have a Sprint 6700, which I guess is the same thing, and I successfully installed and use the Adobe Reader. I agree with the other post as it's version 1, I think.

Verion 2 of Adobe Acrobat Reader is the latest (it came out last year if I remember correctly). It should install without error, so it's hard to guess what went wrong for the original poster.
It's available here: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html
Just select Mobile and Pocket PC to get the right download.

I was successful. A few days ago I tried to install Reader 2.0 (on a Sprint 6700), but had the same problems a lot of people were having and checked forums without success. What I didn't notice until today was that the installer left a .CAB file. The .CAB file was able to install and works well from the storage card. If it didn't leave a .CAB file for you, PM me and I'll send it.
