In response to Rupert Murdoch's announcement that he will be launching the first iPad-only newspaper, Richard Branson plans to unveil the plans for an iPad-only magazine in the next few days. Rumored to be dubbed 'Project,' it would usher in a new wave of interactive reading material.
Considering that tablets are widely considered the "savior of publishing," as Tech Digest puts it, Branson's iPad-only magazine will surely be a hit with consumers. More details on the app will be released on Nov. 30.
