Dual-screen display offers users an engaging, interactive read of their favorite publications on newest entrant to the handheld device market.
Abu Dhabi Media Summit, UAE, March 9, 2010: (PRWEB) — (Abu Dhabi Media Summit #admediasummit): NewspaperDirect Inc., the world leader in multi-channel newspaper and magazine content distribution is bringing the world’s largest online kiosk of full-content newspapers and magazines to the enTourage eDGe™.
Starting today, PressDisplay.com subscribers can download, via wireless network or USB connection, their choice of more than 1,500+ titles to the enTourage eDGe, and read them cover to cover. Available titles include: The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Globe and Mail, National Post, The Guardian, Daily Mail, International Herald Tribune, Irish Independent, Le Figaro, The Australian, New Zealand Herald, Gazeta Wyborcza, Marca, Bangkok Post, and Kommersant, to name just a few.
“Partnering with NewspaperDirect allows us to provide our customers with a robust catalogue of US and international newspapers, satisfying their media consumption needs even further,” said Asghar Mostafa, CEO of enTourage Systems. “The enTourage eDGe is an ideal platform for PressDisplay fans, allowing them to engage content when on the move like never before.”
The world’s first dualbook with hinged E-Ink and LCD screens, the enTourage eDGe combines the functionality of an e-reader, tablet netbook, and notepad. It provides PressDisplay.com subscribers an exceptional newspaper and magazine reading experience. The large 1200 x 825 pixel, glare-free E-Ink screen means they can read their favorite publications even in sunlight, while the technology supports story annotation using the stylus or text — either by hand or using the virtual keyboard.
“The dual screen and exceptional viewing quality of the enTourage eDGe makes reading a newspaper while on the go an even better experience,” said Alex Kroogman, CEO of NewspaperDirect. “As the leader in expanding the number of ways consumers can access newspapers and magazines, we are continually adding new devices, and we’re delighted to add the enTourage eDGe to our line-up. The moment a device is supported by PressDisplay.com, it’s also made available to NewspaperDirect publishing partners for their own e-papers.”
The newspapers and magazines of publishers who are already working with NewspaperDirect are automatically compatible with the enTourage eDGe. Publishers of the hundreds of private-label SmartEdition e-papers powered by PressDisplay technology benefit immediately since their content is made available to their subscribers via the newest consumer electronics devices on the market.
PressDisplay.com is popular with consumers who want access to multiple news sources, and corporate customers who need to monitor printed media for business-critical news. With more than 1,500 full-content digital replicas of newspapers and magazines from 93 countries in 44 languages, it has also become the standard in over 2,500 libraries around the world.
