Hey all:
I'm thinking of getting an e-reader, probably a Kobo Glo, mostly for the newspaper subscriptions service (I'm a news junkie, and I've recently moved to a small town.)
Before I shell out $130 for a reader though, I'd like to know how it reads. I've seen lots of screenshots and demos with books, but the ones at the store never seem to have any newspapers loaded - so I'm pretty much flying blind.
How's the navigation on them? Do they have all of the newspaper content (including the wire service files, crosswords, comics, etc?) How easy is it to look up back issues? Can you search multiple issues at once (if, say, you're looking for an article) or do you need to remember which day the article was out?
Basically, do you all enjoy the subscription service?
Thanks!
T.
