    Why can I not download a copy to my e-reader? I was looking forward to reading it on a long roadtrip this weekend. The imirus help file says that downloading to PDF is a capability, and in fact, I can see the download button appear when the page is loading, but then gets hidden/disabled.

    I hope you can get it downloaded eventually - why not take the printed one along and read that?

    Download Roundel - failing

    Greetings,

    Congratulations on the new website - a little different, but it seems to be working well.

    Thanks too for the "Download" option now appearing on the Roundel imirus Flash page.

    However, the download of the July Roundel appears to be only 767 bytes - I've tried using Internet Explorer v9, Firefox 5.0, and Safari. The resultant file clearly is not a valid PDF.

    Can you investigate, please?

    Any thoughts of an iPad application for members?

    THANKS!!

    Because lots of us like to read our magazines on our iPads! I'm still waiting for Roundel to join the ranks of my other monthly reads that I take with me on the plane on my small, light device...

    I usually read it online but would much rather have a PDF for iBooks!

    Where are you guys seeing a download link?

    OHHHH that bar doesn't show up on my ipad! tried in firefox and there it is! I never have seen it before!

    So is it only the last few current issues that can be downloaded? Or will they all be available eventually?

    So the download link is gone again! Was it removed for a reason?

    It should not have been visible. Roundel is a member benefit and by downloading it it can be freely distributed.
    The club is looking for alternative ways to read Roundel electronically.

    Oh great, copy rights strike again! What if very old versions were made for download?
