gweeptish Negative Re-enforcer Registered: 08/06/04 Posts: 6478 Loc: NYC	I found that Kindle has a NY Times headline service for $1.99 a month. Updated every 4 hours. Each headline with full story and photo It's seperate from the Times daily subscription _________________________ I may not be correct, but, I am never wrong

I know it works with my cybook Free as well Edited by trallyus (03/04/09 06:44 AM) _________________________ We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office. -Aesop, 620 BC - 560 BC
