Wired’s iPad Incarnation: Reason Enough To Get An iPad

Take a look at the video below flaunting what is supposedly Wired’s iPad app. Well, actually, it’s a digital version of the magazine that Wired created with Adobe. But hey, we all know where this is going. The magazine app seems slick and the experience is out-of-the-world rich. It may make me walk down to the Apple store and get my third and most expensive Apple product.
