This is the one thing I don't understand about the price structure - they are allowing smartphone access at the £2 point but charging £10 for the tablet edition. I can see the sense of differentiating between a smartphone app and a tablet app; presumably the smartphone app carries pared-down content. But putting full website access in the £2 bracket rather than in the premium £10 bracket alongside the tablet edition, when a tablet will run the full website without any problems, seems a bit odd.

If it's anything like the Times: With the tablet option you download the entire paper to the tablet and you can then read it at your leisure (though you can obvioulsy access the website as well). You can also keep the backlog on a tablet. But I agree, the difference in price seems excessive.
