The Boss
Ed Chavez, the marketing director of the North American manga publisher Vertical, reports that the Weekly Astro Boy Magazine application for the Apple iPhone and iPod touch mobile devices will be available in Europe in English and French in the summer of 2010. The application with weekly installments of titles from manga pioneer Osamu Tezuka will then be available in Spanish and Italian "soon thereafter."

Chavez noted that each country's selection of titles might be different from what the American version of the application has. For example, France, Italy, and Spain "might get Princess Knight" but the United States might not. Dororo will be exclusive to the United States, Italy, and the United Kingdom; the United States and the United Kingdom will have the same content.

That's not something written with much frequency, I'll admit.
I believe you have one of those 'I Phones', chaos. Are you going to give this a try?

Possibly. Legal manga with a decent price is a good thing. I'm a bit unsure about this chapter a week though. 20 pages for 99p doesn't sound very tempting. And I've read / own a lot of Tezuka already.
