From its very first issue in 1953 to its latest incarnation, the full catalog of Playboy Magazine is coming to the iPad this March. And not only that, it'll be faithful to its original form by arriving to your Apple slate uncensored. Such is the word direct from the man responsible for that first copy, one Mr. Hugh Hefner. Anyone who's followed Apple's App Store rulings and Steve Jobs' forthright comments on the subject of keeping adult material off mobile devices will surely find this a bemusing, if not entirely inconsistent, decision. The details of how this slice of software will be delivered to the iPad (and what restrictions it may come with) will be most intriguing indeed.

It's sad to see this happening, I really respected Apple's former no port stance.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

ARen’t the people who buy Playboy looking for the full front not the full back?

I’m so de-sentisized by the stuff I’ve seen on the internet that Playboy doesn’t really do anything for me anymore.

[LearnsFromMistakes]

Hefner now approves apps? Interesting...

[USFRIENDINVICTORIA]

Yeah, I know what you mean. Too many good articles on the Internet — no reason to read Playboy anymore.

[Yo-Yo]

Steve Jobs is gone five minutes and this is what happens?

[LanaTurnerOverdrive]

Oh please. Playboy is hardly porn.

I know exactly what you mean. /s

[Mr. Lucky]

Playboy is hardly porn.

It's hardly literature either.

woT da hel doze this meen?

[The_Reader_David]

The weird thing is it used to be literature (well, at least some of the stories). The only reason I know this is that my son, an aspiring author, has lamented that Playboy no long accepts unsolicited manuscripts. It seems back in the day, it was one of the few mass-circulation periodicals in which an unknown short-story author could get a start.

Better get some of those plastic screen covers.

[Revel]

But no offensive Christian apps allowed.

I have a minor in understanding gibberish -

It is their goal to see how much sinful material can be released to the public. Their goal is to overload society with sinful material and ungodliness.

I love a fine port in the evening.....

Porn? no thank you
