Good Start
I am always stunned by comments about "this is not free...they expect you to pay". Well of course they do. If you work for FREE, send me an email...Ill hire you! You are getting the application free, as promised and paying $3.99 for an issue is very reasonable!
Now, with that out of the way...the application is a great start! However, just a couple of comments:
1) It would appear you need to be online to read your purchase: bad! I bought it, I should be able to read it when and where I want.
2) Table of contents is not linked to the actual articles in the magazine: painful navigation
3) The use of page thumbnails across the bottom is well done...except that there are no page numbers: add this to item number two and the navigation is VERY painful.
Performance (once a page is loaded) is great and quality of material is very hi. Fix the couple of issues above and you have a great news app! Ill buy more issues when you do.
