Windows Vista finally in the news for something good! We kid you not ,we are actually going to write something good abut the infamous Vista!

Microsoft and the New York Times has just showcased a software which lets users download an electronic version of the newspaper and can also be viewed on a portable device. Thanks to the Windows Vista software, any magazine or newspaper can be formatted into an electronic version and read online or off and the software is also capable of replicating the Times Format to the T.

Darn, I thought Avantgo can do the same thing? This epaper stuff is something we have already seen for quite some time at one of our local websites - sun2surf.com

Tom Bodkin, an assistant managing editor of The Times and its design director, demonstrated Times Reader to the audience. "You can page through the entire paper in a natural and intuitive way," Mr. Bodkin said. Mr. Gates said he expected that by then, other publications would have developed electronic versions closer to their own styles and typefaces.’

The Times Reader will charge advertisers to place ads and appear on the neo version of the newspaper and in the demonstration, the companies downloaded and previewed this new software onto small tablet computers.
