Yeah, I know that's an unpopular idea around here, but here's why... I pay about $300/year for the newspaper, so if I can cut that cost in half, or less, I can justify buying a new toy. I do read some books, but hard to justify forking out a couple hundred bucks (remember, I'm in Canada) for the 3-4 books a year I read. Plus, I'd need 2, as my wife and I swap books all the time.

Does that make sense?
I tried press display with my iPad, using Atomic browser mimicking Foxfire 3 and IE 8, but I was not able to view the full sheets, only the thumbnails. It's designed to work in a desktop browser using a mouse, not a touch based interface. You may be able to get it to work, but it would be much easier on a laptop or desktop. I do have full rights to most of the papers on press display.
