Converting all of the world's newspapers to paperless publishing is an excellent idea. We like it, for a lot of reasons. We're not old-fashioned, we don't like ink on our fingers, we want instantly searchable, zoomable, shareable newspapers that don't kill trees. But what are we going to do with all those newspaper boxes! Well, somebody has answered that question as well. Just take a look at the video, and see. Just slap a 17 inch LCD in there with a cellular internet connection and bam, you've got yourself an instant advertisement for your newspaper. Plus, it's one wireless upload and credit-card transaction away from a pay-based system for digital papers. But we'll have to wait and see on that one. Via Engadget

I want to be able to spill coffee and make chocolate stains on my newspapers (as well as my books, mags, etc). Besides newspapers are usually printed on recycled paper.
