Mit Hochdruck arbeiten die Fachjournale des Westens zur Zeit an einer Portierung auf den iPad:
iPad-type readers may not be perfect, but for the first time they do seem to provide a vehicle that is very well suited to the presentation of a medical or any other type of journal. We believe that these devices have the potential to be transformational. […] the iPad version of the Journal will have essentially the same features as current online version. However, it will be much more attractive to carry, operate, read, and manipulate. I suspect that we will soon be reading all of our magazines, books, and newspapers in this format. Although it is not certain, it does appear that the era of electronic journals has finally arrived, [Anthony N. DeMaria, JACC]
