Thanks for the tip, Paul. I don't own an iPad either. My Motorola cell phone is served by Verizon Wireless which is soon to also connect with iPads, I read. Until then I hope others in USMA will report on the new Murdoch venture.
P.S. My local News Gazette just announced an eEdition for 99 cents per month, somewhat cheaper than Murdoch's Daily. Why the difference? Political content?
