Newspaper ties to this "Big Kindle"?
Greater penetration in the textbook using demographic would be nice but this is not where newspapers should be hanging their future.
We would like to see an alliance with
Google (they happen to also be in the information business and want access to the content) for a communication module with a wireless connection to a flexible screen (The module could provide further connectivity for the screen as well as input capabilities). The partnership would be good for both: Google needs to bolster their position since
WolframAlpha appears to be a game-changer and newspapers are just good things to have around.
Full disclosure demands that we mention that this lonely outpost of the internet is hosted by Google.
