Newspaper delivered to your PSP in Norway

The Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet is joining the growing number of newspapers around the world that are offering online digital editions to subscribers as an alternative to paper. In an apparent effort to attract younger readers and grow their circulation of approximately 183,000 subscribers, Dagbladet recently launched a special digital edition with text and photos optimized for the Sony PSP's stunning screen.

Will all traditional print publications eventually have to offer digital versions or face the prospect of losing subscribers to alternative online content?

It doesn't only work with the PSP, but also with any other WAP-enabled device. Well almost, the pictures don't come up. Perhaps they are checking for the browser user-agent??
