| Welcome... | | Sales of tablet computers are at an all-time high and some high street retailers are reporting a 400% hike in profits as a result. Up to three million will change hands this Christmas, with one being sold every two seconds – that's a lot of tablets! To celebrate, all recent issues of Practical Photography and Digital Photo in the App Store are now just 99p, so you can buy your favourite photography magazine on Christmas Day without even leaving the house. If Santa brings you an Android device, visit the Google Play store to enjoy the same offer. Ho, ho, ho and all that. Anyway, in the words of Noddy Holder… IT'S CHRISTMAAAAAS!
Have fun. | Ben Hawkins, Editor |
