Comic Books and the iPad
I’ve been saying this for awhile now, comic books on the Apple iPad are a massive opportunity. The large color screen is perfect for this kind of content. I would even argue that it’s a big strategic advantage the iPad has over the Amazon Kindle. The Kindle is the perfect device for black and white [...]

Either that or they don’t care. As everyone is today, I am left wondering if anybody had the discussion about the iPad name.
