I strongly suspect that the iRex Iliad will be the first device to have this feature. Equipped with its own internet connection (it has wireless on board) it was designed to connect to the iRex website and download content. iRex is working with several European newspapers to develop "on-line" versions that can be downloaded daily. With that set up, it should be possible to have the Iliad (or a subsequent version) to download your paper(s) of choice, while you sleep and be ready to read on the way out the door.

I think we are a long way from that day with the Sony.
