Just read this on Amazon Daily tonight - sheesh, with as much trouble as eReaders manufacturers have had with making these profitable, it's hard to believe that Hearst would go head-to-head against Amazon and Sony, with an eReader that's JUST for reading newspapers! Except that THEIR product would have the newspaper ADS for enhanced revenue. That alone, would keep me away from it - with the smallness of the screen, even an 8 1/2 x 11, screen real estate is too precious for me to waste on annoying ads!

Maybe this is just Hearst's "shot over the bow" at Amazon, to encourage them to give some type of sweetheart deal for their papers Kindle subscriptions?
