Pocket PC Magazine releases digital version
http://www.pocketpcmag.com/store/asp/aftrack.asp?ID=13&Req=product.asp?product=69
Pocket PC Magazine is using Zinio, a rather innovative way of delivering digital magazines. I like the thought they put into the client - if you press the space bar, it moves down the page until it gets to the bottom, the it flips (with a nice animation) to the next page. But if you use the arrow keys, it goes to the bottom of the page, then goes back up to the top - a must for multiple-column reading.
"Thaddeus Computing, publishers of Pocket PC magazine, July 5, 2002�
Pocket PC magazine�s new Digital Edition, based on Zinio� and Adobe� technology, provides an exact digital replica of the print version of the magazine. The pages even flip! The Digital Edition is read on a desktop or notebook PC, providing a two-page view. With one click, a page enlarges. Easy access to articles is provided by a �Contents� key, which instantly opens the �Table of Contents� page. Additionally, �hot links� within the pages will take you to other pages within the magazine, or to Web sites on the Internet. You can highlight and annotate text for later reference. Also included is a handy search feature for locating those elusive and hard to find articles quickly."

Where's the PPC version???
Yeah, I know that the screen is a little small (except the 4" Toshiba Genio) but I still want mobile Zenio Reader. Adobe put Acrobat Reader on the PPC, so this shouldn't be a problem.

Huh?
Ummmm, the digital Pocket PC Magazine won't be available in some Pocket PC-friendly format...? (I don't wanna sit at my PC reading about all the neat things to do with my PPC -- I wanna be on the go, *doing* some of those neat things while reading about *other* neat things to do!)
