The big problem for the kindle for news is the unreliability of updates. My wife has subscribed first to the New York Times and then later to The Washington Post on her kindle. Both subscriptions have randomly failed to update for days on end at times, leading to frustration and amazon customer support calls. We finally cancelled NYT and switched to the Washington post after a period of several days with no NYT updates. Sadly, the post is not all that much better.
