Farhad Manjoo loves his iPad so much that he declares "I'm through with paper" while admitting "I thought it would be a long time before I gave up on print magazines. I revere magazines:"
The Retina iPad is the first electronic device on which photos look better than they do on magazine pages. Colors are more brilliant, they never fade, and the shots are dynamic--many newspaper and magazine apps let you expand and zoom in on photos, allowing images to play an even bigger part in a story's narrative. [...] The Retina display has brought iPad magazines up to par, as a reading experience, with their print counterparts. [...] In fact, since getting the new iPad, I've pretty much stopped reading on paper altogether. [...] I'm surprised by how quickly I shifted to a paper-free lifestyle.
