I can respond with text from our CDF website:

"We are actively pursuing solutions for mobile devices, including cloud-based services, to make CDF available to anyone, anywhere.
The iPad is an important part of our CDF strategy for accessing educational apps, business reports, and other interactive computational material."

And indeed there is some cool stuff coming, but you'll just have to stay tuned.

As we expected, implementing CDF for iPad to the usual WRI standards has many challenges, but we've been making great progress and you should be hearing more soon.

Dear André,

I know that you guys are probably annoyed by the situation the most. But can you be a bit more specific? How can it be that over a year ago you post a working example that obviously you have in the box, but that for some reason (my guess is problems with Apple) you can not get it out there and Wolfram doesn't communicate anything from that front.

A lot of people are waiting for cdf on the ipad, wolfram widgets for ibook author, and I am sure this is gonna change scientific book publishing big time.
Can you give somewhat of a time frame,  to know if its worth to wait?

Thanks, Konstantin
