I will be very interested to see video of someone taking notes on this new device. I've grown pretty enamored of the keyboard-supported search and notes functions on my Kindle; will the pen input be as useful for such things?

But, sadly, Newspaper Direct doesn't offer the New York Times (except the website version) or The Economist. I really want my morning Times (i.e., the duplicate of the p version, not the website version) delivered electronically. All I want is access to B&N and my daily Times (The Economist would be a great bonus). This announcement excites me (and that I will be able to test it at my local Best Buy).
