They put the 'tab' in tabloid.

I had to. Honestly I'm surprised they didn't think of that.

$129 1-YEAR PACKAGE

The apps I saw are Inquirer Android App, Inquirer Digital Edition App, Daily News Digital Edition App, Philly.com. (I know, that's 4) The only one I found in the app market is Philly.com for $1.99 - I don't know why you would pay for a web site you can visit.

Quote:
At the Sept. 12 tablet launch, the publisher predicted that the first batch of 5,000 units would sell out in a week. Six weeks later, only about half of the narrow black computers have moved. "In the exuberance of the promotion, I got a little bit carried away," said Osberg, predicting, still, that the venture "will be profitable within two years."
