The future of magazines and newspapers?

Publisher Time Inc. thinks it sees the future of print media.  In essence, publishers will have the option to create digital versions of their magazines and newspapers and offer this format to various device manufacturers.  For example, in the demo above Time Inc. has teamed up with the designers at The Wonder Factory to display a digital version of Sports Illustrated.  And when Apple releases its purported tablet device Time Inc. and other publishers will have the option to flock to that device to share its content.  This is the F-U-T-U-R-E.   Or so they think.

Some features in the demo include multitouch to flick through pages and pinch to zoom, live sports scores, sharing abilities with Facebook and Twitter, and cover pages that really come to life.
