    Hi Chris,

    I just noticed the “iPad ready” icon on your newest tutorials. Does this mean I don’t need to use iSwifter when viewing on my iPad? No more Flash video? I haven’t tried it yet.
    Thanks,
    Jack

    Yes, if it has the new iPad icon it is natively viewable on the iPad. It hasn’t officially been announced but the player has been switched so you don’t need 3rd party software on the iPad anymore.
