"hopes can do for periodicals what Amazon's Kindle is doing for books..."

I might be interested -- would be nice to wake up in the morning with a large screen format to spread out in front of my breakfast.

Still haven't gotten used to reading newspapers on the Kindle v1 (local SF paper didn't seem too impressive) but as the K2 screen resolution is much better I'd expect the Hearst version as well to also be better for pictures.

The San Francisco Chronicle said today that it may go under in a couple of months, according to what I heard on the TV. Hard to believe. And just incredible. A big city like this without a newspaper. Seems the world is collapsing around us.
