London-based BERG demonstrate the potential of tablet devices to deliver a rich experience for magazine lovers, much like a book on Amazon Kindle.

I'm sure it will get blogged and retweeted-retumbled, dugg but I liked it and would love for the tablets to become affordable. Like CR say 'Magazine publishers are getting very excited about the potential of iPhone Apps' the tablet will be slightly bigger device. 

  'In this hugely impressive video, BERG walk us through their ideas for how magazines may work on such a device.'   

Via Guardian, Via PaperPapers via infographicsnews & seen via CR-Blog,  

'this isn't just pie in the sky conceptualising but part of serious research commissioned by Swedish publisher Bonnier R&D Beta Lab, which believes that such devices will be in use in two years' time'.  

The BERG concept certainly seems more considered than this idea for Sports Illustrated that has recently done the rounds online.
