Tell me again ... why do newspapers need paper, exactly?

    Just got a Kindle and I'm thinking of cancelling my weekday NYT paper subscription and getting the Kindle version.
    Does anyone have any issues with the NYT content on Kindle?

    I still don't know what a Kindle is.

    I get the NYT in my e-mail every morning. No kindle, just the stories and updates throughout the day.

    Not everyone wants a Kindle.

    I would estimate Podunk's average readership is 60 years old. And, trust me, most of them don't want Kindles.

    Hell, I don't even want a Kindle.

    I'm probably getting a Sony Reader because Kindle does not work in Canada. Can you download papers onto that?

    People will not carry two wireless devices. Palm, anyone?

    This is the future, if there is one, without question.

    Look at your building. How big would it need to be if you did not print a paper?
