Wired Magazine has published a video in which they demonstrate some of the features of their new digital magazine.

According to Jeremy Clark from Adobe, "What was shown at TED, and is featured in the video, is an Adobe AIR application. This means it is compatible on Mac, Windows, Linux, Android (as of our announcement at Mobile World Congress yesterday), and it will run on the iPad as a native application. It is possible to develop applications leveraging a common ActionScript 3 codebase that can be converted at compile-time into a native .ipa (iPhone App) package instead of an AIR app installer"

In the video Wired's editor-in-chief indicates that this new digital magazine is capable "resetting the economics" of tablet magazines. Wired believes their new creation is such a great experience that users who typically refuse to pay for digital content will be convinced to purchase the subscription.

Well as I promised if the 4 Magazines I subscribed too created Apps for the iPad, I would buy one. One down 3 to go. Maxim, Maximum PC and MacWorld hurry up. I doubt Maxim will make one or if they do it wont be approved.
