Boing Boing says Apple’s iPad is a touch of genius. Xeni Jardin reviews The Elements, an iPad app:

“The Elements on iPad is not a game, not an app, not a TV show. It’s a book. But it’s Harry Potter’s book. This is the version you check out from the Hogwarts library. Everything in it is alive in some way.”

And so it is. Multimedian books have found a home, I think, at long last.
