While there’s something to be said about the charm of reading newspapers in good old-fashioned print, the times are a-changin’. PressDisplay has been hoarding digitized newsprint since ‘99, and have today announced that their Mobile PressDisplay software is now available for BlackBerry. For a cool $29.95/month, you get access to over 500 newspapers across 70 countries in 37 languages on your handheld. Items are available for only two weeks following release, after which you have to a pay a buck per archived issue, which isn’t crazy at all. The service is compatible with the Curve, Pearl and BlackBerry 8800. PressDisplay offers blogging support, too. Hmmmm…

We get PressDisplay at my school library…it’s an excellent research tool.
I also registered from home with the promo code “NEWS4FREE” for 1-month access. I read A LOT of newspapers
