A New, Albeit Salacious, Meaning to the Touch-based Interface: Porn Company Claims to Have Hacked the iPad

CNN's Doug Gross is reporting that one of the world's biggest porn companies claims it hacked a way to stream its videos onto the iPad, skipping the Apple store completely, and giving a new, albeit salacious, meaning to the touch-based interface. "The announcement," write Gross, "illustrates a widely acknowledged but seldom-spoken truth of the technology world: Whenever there's a new content platform, the adult-entertainment industry is one of the first to adopt it -- if they didn't help create it in the first place."
