Launches to close to the Witcher 2 for me...

It's available on the Mac App Store already. I'm holding off for the iPad version.

I know it's available for mac already I made a thread about it when it launched asking for impressions, no one replied...

Is the iPad version actually happening? I read he was thinking about bringing some games over but I didn't know he had actually started working on it.

It's on the Spiderweb web site as "Spring 2011" and Jeff Vogel says it's in beta here:

I'm hoping that it'll be a hit and Spiderweb will port over some of their back catalog.
