It looks great. I'll watch for it. I suppose the name will be Alice On the iPad. Thanks for sharing.

Looks great, better than the old pop-up style paper books! I wonder if there will be more titles available with these type of enhancements.

Nice effect but don't you think you're getting tired after a short time?

If you increase these effects and use them in a logical matter (like in a Sherlock Holmes novel) you will get a video game and they are already exisiting.

to an adult, probably. but to a 5 year old who can read the same non-action book over and over this would keep them entertained for weeks, months.

actually to anyone who hasn't tried it, the free Toy Story interactive book is worth a download and look over. it has extras like coloring and games, another nice example of what publishers could do. but i think the alice book looks more in the style of old popups than a video game.

You think the majority of the iPad users is 5 years old? Well, and some users had complained I would bash Mac users *hehe* ... ?

The genre you're describing is a (Text-/Graphics) adventure. They exist for over 20 years .....

This is truly amazing - the future of storytelling and books. This is what really excited me about the ipad!
