Imagine that! Some people just want to read, even when using an iPad.


For New Yorker on iPad, Words Are the Thing. (The New York Times, 8/1/2011)

Excerpt: When magazine publishers began pouring their resources and hopes into the iPad, their thinking was that readers wanted something substantially more than just words on a screen. A simple PDF of a page just would not do. The app had to dazzle the senses.

But some consumers, it turns out, just want to read
.

Perhaps the biggest irony is that The New Yorker iPad edition outsells Wired's.

Cloudred, time to eat your words.
