I remember that picture from Apple with someone trying to shove a Dell in their back pocket...can someone finally 'shop this tablet mockup to that image? #appletablet
@Howard Weliver: Do you happen to be British? (Just wondering what type of fanny we're talking about, here.)
Also: I resisted the eyephone. I did, it was quite easy in the end; I don't like phones enough. But this, this could be a seductive creature that I can't quite say no to. #appletablet
I don't understand why they totally close magazines, if they still have a readership, moving them digital does save lots of money and does not have as much overhead as printed magazines so you would think before they close them, they would move them digital first and see if they can stay afloat there. I read all of my magazines digitally now and don't mind paying for them because I can get them earlier, don't waste the paper (which I have to recycle later) and have the digital copies forever without taking up space (harddrive space is cheap and easy to have around).
I just have to chime in: Gourmet isn't my favorite food magazine (Saveur is) but I will still miss it. I don't think I am cut out for Conde Nast's remaining food mag, Bon Apetit. (Cuz I keep laughing at its name. You know, "ape tit." Heh. It's like an ape with boobs.)
Wait, haven't you been saying for the past two days that the Apple tablet will save publishing? And now it is doomed because nobody wants to read magazines on their handheld devices?
Oh, I see, you're only concerned with cheerleading for the iTunes and Amazon monopolies. Way to stick up for the consumer, there, guys.
@0xdeadbeef: It's because the device itself is important. The Kindle succeeds where others have failed because e-ink makes the difference. The tablet will presumptively have good features as well. The point is that the content folks think the device is unimportant. They are just like Verizon.

How is this different from an ebook?
If they can make them "disposable" where do we "dispose" of them? In the river? What a stupid concept.
