im thinking an ipad could fix that & solve the book problem too.

^ that'd be a good start

most of what the offer is shit (to me anyway) but there are a few gems; http://www.nextissue.com/partner-pricing/?tab=ipad

then there's the individual subscription route... anyway.... e.g.

http://www.thewire.co.uk/shop/subscr...l_subscription

http://www.thenation.com/50ways#

http://www.finddigitalmagazines.co.u...-subscription/

etc

Oh yeah, dude, you're looking at an iPad for sure. If you're at all worried about the cost, get a 32gig mini. I kinda wish I'd gone that route, but then my eyesight is terrible and I really do need a bigger screen for movies etc.

On another note, when the fuck is Scientific American Mind going to go e-friendly? You can only buy hard copies of that magazine, when bullshit like Psychology Today is digitally rampant!
