Newspapers Need An iPod Moment

Writing in The New York Times, David Carr considers a futuristic newspaper reading device:

What the newspaper industry really needs is an iPod moment.

Consider if the line between the Web and print matter were erased by a device for data consumption, not data entry – all screen, no baggage – that was uplinked and updated constantly: a digital player for the eyes, with an iTunes-like array of content available at a ubiquitous volume and a low, digestible price.
