At today’s iPad event, Apple scratched McGraw-Hill from the presentation slide displaying the various educational partners for the iPad. The awkward array of five logos used to be a tidy lineup of six. The day before the show, Apple removed McGraw-Hill, the 122-year-old publisher whose 61-year-old leader, Harold McGraw III — better known as Terry – leaked about the iPhone OS on the TV.

Here’s what McGraw-Hill CEO said:

Yeah, Very exciting. Yes, they’ll make their announcement tomorrow on this one. We have worked with Apple for quite a while. And the Tablet is going to be based on the iPhone operating system and so it will be transferable. So what you are going to be able to do now is we have a consortium of e-books. And we have 95% of all our materials that are in e-book format. So now with the tablet you’re going to open up the higher education market, the professional market. The tablet is going to be just really terrific.

    The i pad is actually absolutely silly. I can’t see myself putting down $400 to $600 to get a device which can’t do half the things which my notebook can. I normally like Apple, specifically the apple iphone. But seems a bit too much. I wish all of them well nevertheless I will not be buying one anytime in the near future.

    Great article. There’s a lot of good data here, though I did want to let you know something – I am running Mac OS X with the latest beta of Firefox, and the look and feel of your blog is kind of quirky for me. I can understand the articles, but the navigation doesn’t function so well.
