I just purchased a newspaper via NewspaperDirect on the Irex and it does indeed show you each page of the paper, just as it was laid out for print. But it doesn't fill the screen or reflow--it's like looking at a static image of each page

. When I click on the icon to switch views, I get something that's largely text-based and not much better that what Sony and Amazon offer.
Now I'm trying the download to reader option from their website via computer, and it's been stuck at "preparing file for download" 0% for the last 10 minutes. *sigh*
