Product Description

The New York Times is dedicated to providing news coverage of exceptional depth and breadth, as well as opinion that is thoughtful and stimulating. Widely quoted, and often hotly debated, The New York Times is held by its readers to the highest of standards and continues to be regarded by many as the nation's pre-eminent newspaper. The New York Times has earned an unprecedented 94 Pulitzer Prizes, far more than any other newspaper. A global news staff covers a wide range of interests: from world, national and New York issues to business, culture, science, religion, travel, style, food, sports, health and home. In addition to outside contributors, the editorials page features The New York Times' own team of award-winning columnists: David Brooks, Maureen Dowd, Thomas L. Friedman, Bob Herbert, Nicholas D. Kristof, Paul Krugman, Frank Rich and John Tierney.

The Kindle Edition of The New York Times contains articles found in the print edition, but will not include some images and tables. Also, some features such as the crossword puzzle, box scores and classifieds are not currently available. For your convenience, issues are automatically delivered wirelessly to your Kindle so you can read them each morning.

Yesterday's News Delivered Tomorrow1
The NYTimes in San Francisco delivers from before 9 a.m. to as late as 11:20 p.m. (2:20 a.m. the next day in NY) The paper contains news from yesterday, packaged electronically, and delivered late. No problems with the Financial Times, which delivers 11:00 p.m. the day before.

Not perfect, but well worth it4
There's no doubt that this technology isn't quite there yet. The Kindle itself is a remarkable product (especially for a first generation technology), but it's designed for books. The Times isn't as easy to navigate on a Kindle as a book, but the lower cost, lack of waste, and ease of delivery more than make up for it's relatively trivial shortcomings.

Up until now, I had a weekend subscription and would read online during the week. The Kindle offers a nice compromise between the two. You get the readability of the physical paper without the waste, and greater convenience than the online edition.

I find myself reading more of the paper every day and it's great to be able to reach over and read it without ever getting out of bed. The only real drag is the lack of updates throughout the day, which would be nice considering the price of the Times is substantially more than Kindle editions of comparable papers.

I haven't given up the Sunday subscription just yet, but by Kindle 2.0, physical periodicals will be a thing of the past in my house.

Great buy......5
