Unfortunately, you'll need an iPad to view it. The company is
resurrecting the brand as Gourmet Live, which will feature the usual

spending euros as were they grains of sand!”)

The application, which launches this autumn, will reportedly be free.
Perhaps Condé Nast have learned from the idiotic $4.99 cost of each
issue of Wired.
