Zinio brings digital magazines to Ultrabooks




Zinio has struck a deal to offer 5,000 magazines through Intel’s AppUp store, allowing buyers of Ultrabooks – the Windows equivalent to Apple’s MacBook Air laptops – to access digital copies of their favourite titles.

Apps for Zinio are already available to download for a range of tablets and smartphones.

“Intel is leading the push in Ultrabook devices, which are transforming the mobile computing experience; while Zinio continues to propel the digital reading experience forward, pioneering new ways for people to read and interact with digital magazines wherever they are,” said Zinio President and CEO Rich Maggiotto.

“The distribution relationship for Ultrabooks expands the broad lineup of device and platform availability for Zinio, and enables Ultrabook owners to easily read and explore their favourite magazines.”
