There Before 5am
Have no clue what all the flap is about over the delivery time, I get up at 4:00 am hop in the shower. When I get out the paper is there every morning before 5am.

Paper is ready for me in the morning. I like the way it’s boiled down to the articles and I don’t have to cart papers to the trash.
Articles are well organized and the Kindle is great as a reader.
Simply amazing. As for the weather it’s on the TV, my computer, and out my window.

Usually comes between 7-8am PT. Too late for a newspaper. This is a fatal flaw in the Kindle’s newspaper service. Fortunately the NY times is always there before 5am.

The Only Way I’ll Read The Seattle Times
I have lived in Seattle for years but have never found the daily paper necessary. Paper pile-up was more of a burden than an asset.

If the paper is STILL not here by the time I get to work at 11am, there’s something wrong with that service. If Amazon wants to make this a viable option to the hard copy, they need to bring up the delivery speed.

Generally Pleased
I got my Kindle 2 the day it came out, and subscribed to the Seattle Times the first day. It has been a little over 2 weeks now of me getting the newspaper digitally.

missing weather section
I have been a Seattle Times paper subscriber for over a year and find it a good read. The kindle edition is well structured and does cover most of the news and articles.

Limited
Much less content than my other subscription, Washington Post. The Times is a smaller paper and is cheaper, but it seems they are just putting less articles in their Kindle…

Late delivery trumps good content
Agree with others that content is good, but in my trial delivered late 14% of the time. One day didn’t arrive until after noon, and today not delivered when I normally read the…

mostly worth it
I have enjoyed about a week of the paper. Very good for some local news in Seattle. I agree with the other reviewer – it needs the weather forcast on the front page!
