Well, obviously if you have a kindle, it's not a problem - but not everyone has a kindle :) So I'm just wondering if there would be a way to buy the paper outside of signing up for a 1 year contract and getting a free kindle. I mean, if they want to sell me a paper for $1.75 and throw in a free Kindle ... sounds good to me, but in that case the profitability of this plan comes into question ;)

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for someone trying the idea - it sounds like a pretty awesome, and environmentally friendly way to go for the future of newspapers. Just playing the devil's advocate.

On the other hand, I've come to despise 1- and 2-year contracts, thanks to cell-phone service providers ;)
