Here's an example PDF form that I created in OpenOffice; http://pirateparty.net.nz/files/application.pdf I am able to enter text in the fields in evince. I don't know about saving/submitting though (because we chose not to do any of that) but as near as I can tell evince supports PDF forms just fine.

I really, STRONGLY advise against using Adobe's proprietary bloatware. Adobe's reader is 43M, evince (including libraries) is less than half a meg. And evince has a lot more useful functionality (not just less anti-features)
I agree with the bloatware, but I'm not sure whether evince, kpdf or okular support Adobe forms. Depending on that, you might have to bite the bullet.
