You know this article kind of spoils the announcement of the Plastic Logic eReader’s impending release by disclosing that USA Today has ‘e-inked’ a content deal with them. How can they be impartial reporting on this topic? USA Today has a vested interest. So the online version of a struggling newspaper likes the Plastic Logic eReader. Since they hope this eReader will save them from extinction, it’s hardly surprising that they’re impressed by the thing. Read the Plastic Logic story here. The same murky integrity surrounded the New York Times’ positive impression of the Kindle DX because they’ve got a content deal with Amazon.
I mentioned Plastic Logic’s eReading machine back in January before any mention of content deals and as machinery goes, it’s a beautiful piece of tech. Take a look, yah?
