two questions, is the £2.99 or $3.99(I think) per issue or is it just one time fee.
and i noticed it was 523mb does that mean i can view it offline?

It's five dollars per issue.
Based on the reviews, I think it downloads the entire issue when you purchase it.

Ah cheers! Is it in app purchase or what, as after a few issue those 550mb will build up and fill up

Yes, it appears to be an in-app purchase for each issue at $5.00 a pop. I am assuming that you could delete or archive old issues, but it's a guess.

Use this link I got from the itunes apps store to contact the vendor for more info.

Wired has said that they are looking at offering subscription pricing but have not stated any details yet.

They definitely need to reduce their download size, though.

yeah i've already bought the app, and i don't have an iPad but i hope they just put the recent issue on the iPad memory and then the old ones can be access over internet via account pass or something.

and a subscription fee would be good although not to fused about paying£3 a month only £36 a year, $60 for you i don;t know if thats cheap or not for you guys in the US, but hopefully a subscription will come out, as that would be awesome.
