Best PDF reader/annotator for iPad?

So, I bought an iPad Air, and I'm going to use to read mostly research/technical papers. I have most of these stored in a Dropbox directory somewhere.

I was wondering if people have experience with the various PDF readers. What I would like:

1). Dropbox integration
2). Ability to highlight/annotate
3). Ability to read highlights/annotations made from Preview
4). Ability to double-tap zoom/otherwise re-format the typical two-column research paper format
5). Tagging? Anything else cool?

I know the ReadleDocs app that I got for free on my iPhone, forever ago, will read preview annotations, so I'm thinking their iPad PDF app might be a good place to start. Theres also Goodreader and iAnnotate, but I've read those aren't as good any more?


Anyone got any great ideas? Thanks!
 
I have no direct experience with this myself, but the guys on MacBreak Weekly seem to really love PDF Pen Pro. From what I know, this app was designed for what you want to do.
