The Australian reaches iPad orgasm as Apple responds by duffing up snapper
Today was iPad Day in Australia, and Dr Mumbo’s favourite newspaper, The iPadstralian didn’t disappoint.
Apple fans will be glad to know that inside the newspaper they’ll be able to find 12 photos of iPads.
Two of the three teaser slots on The Australian’s front page were given over to “”iPad mania” and “a new way of reading the news”.
The bottom of the front page carries a lengthy article (continued on page 4) on RM Williams chairman and Australian founder Ken Cowley, written by Caroline Overington. He “yesterday became one of the first people in the world to handle the digital edition of The Australian on the iPad”.
iClohting, hells no!
Don’t be a hater, Tim.

You missed the big ad for their iPad app on page 8.
It’ll be interesting to see how News Limited views Apple and the iPad if the expected hundreds or thousands of paying subscribers don’t come to the party.
I also saw a number of Apple ad billboards around Sydney with smh.com.au as the news portal shown on the iPad, perhaps they are showing The Australian in other boards too, but those were the ones i saw. No sign of News Ltd pubs.
now i understand why the photog was so p!ssed off about being shoved away.. or just told to back up a bit.
