Are we going to get news about every app that appears for the iPad? I hope not.

Maybe just for every reading related software launch? that would seem sensible.

That was what was what I argued back when the iPad forum was created, and that was ignored. No, they should be moved. Consistency ++

But what would stay in news if everything were moved to the relevant forums?

Oh sorry, you seem to mistake me for someone who thinks that consistency in moderation is bad.

Its one of teh first apps i will be getting.
That would rule out any Marvel comics then, since you are only renting the ability to view them online.

What's this sudden obsession computer makers have with reflective screens? Have they been doing secret deals with opticians (optometrists) or something?

Not if you already have them in PDF from marvel!

"Remember the PDF releases several years ago? You could buy the entire Spider Man (and others) collection from 1963 to 2006 for $45 and get 575 comics. ONLY FORTY-FIVE DOLLARS!!! With Marvel's new pricing scheme, that's now over $1000. And they were PDFs which allowed for viewing on any device. And I could back them up and I could share them."

you can still buy them
