All of you talking about this as a printer appear to have missed the point very slightly. This isn't a general purpose printer, its more like a personalized newspaper producer.

I think people are GETTING the point: "that stuff you prefer to view on a screen? Now you can pay a lot of money to get it in a less useful form-factor: paper!"

Paper is nice, it's disposable, shareable, etc :) .

However, the sticking point is the "lot of money" part, as many have pointed out, since tablets became mainstream it will have to compete with them.

Newspapers: the next growth industry.

Who wants to read a newspaper on a strip of thermal paper? That's what I don't get about this; the resulting form factor is just laughable.
