It's a pity, but, in terms of newspapers and magazines, the T1 is a huge step back... no 3g and not even auto-delivery via WIFI.
But how the heck does one get magazines and newspapers on the T1? The Reader software misses a lot of issues - as in, it often will NOT import them - whereas the Reader Library worked. So what's the other option? Drag-and-drop?

It is not as bad as it sounds. Though not completely seamless, downloading newspaper issues is actually quite smooth. When I sit down to breakfast in the morning, I simply tap the "Purchased Content" button and wait perhaps 20-30 seconds while the Wifi wakes up and loads the periodicals page (by the time I have poured my coffee its up). There is no password to enter; it just goes right to the download page. I select my newspaper, click on the topmost issue (always the most recent), and in about five seconds, it downloads it, and I am ready to read. The whole process is over in less than 1 minute. Easy peasy.
