Want to know the story behind the wallpaper used on the iPad's home screen? then check out this article over at ARTINFO.com. They cover the story of how the first photographer Richard Misrach new about the use of his photo, was when Steve Jobs unveiled the iPad back in January.

Richard Misrach said "I was in bed watching Inglorious Bastards when I got a call from Jeffrey FraenkeL, my dealer in San Francisco, and he said, 'Do you know what's going on live here?'" Misrach told ARTINFO. "I was totally shocked. Naturally my other galleries started calling and my family was all atwitter, because it's a whole different world."

Due to a major spamming problem here on the iPhoneography blog, I've had to enable "comment approval". Whilst this will slow down the interaction between readers, myself and other commenters, it will get rid of the crap, but don't let this stop you from leaving comments on any post, as I will approve them as quickly as possible, but please remember I do have to sleep sometimes :)
