This is the perfect way to use your Tablet PC
to read the New York Times. It's more convenient and
up-to-date than the Web version.
For more information, check out the
Times FAQ. Here's a small sample of the
content -
 What
is Times Reader?
Times Reader is a new, downloadable software application that
lets Windows XP and Vista users read The New York Times
electronically, online or offline, in a paginated format as
opposed to scrolling down a Web page. Times Reader lets users
retrieve all the latest news and photos (a process that takes
about a minute) and read the content offline. It also let’s you
check to see how much of the paper you have read and easily
navigate to articles of interest that you may have missed.
What are the hardware and software requirements?
Times Reader will work on a desktop, laptop, a tablet PC or an
ultra-mobile computing device.
Hardware requirements:
Operating system: Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista
Processor: 1Ghz
RAM: Minimum 384 MB / Recommended: 500 MB

Thinks Outside the Browser
- Finally, a readable online newspaper by Jack Shafer on
slate.com is an excellent read on how it works and how he
prefers it over any other way of reading The New York Times.
