Indeed, those Squeak News interactive CD's are great. I think I still
have my CDs, which used to arrive in my mailbox just like a magazine.
I bet that many of the folks on this list have never even seen this.

Of course nowadays you would want to distribute the magazine directly
to an iPad, rather than mailing the CD (or to Android pads if Apple
does not cooperate). I suspect that something like Squeak News
distributed to an iPad has the potential to be a real "killer app".
