World’s first ‘newspaper’ phone

When I first read that Sweden’s Dagens Nyheter claimed to have launched the world’s first ‘newspaper’ telephone: a mobile phone offering the daily’s subscribers direct and free access to its website I was surprised. Details on the launch are at the European Journalism Centre website. This world first is actually a special Nokia phone with a button which takes you direct to the newspaper website. While cool for people who want to read their newspaper on their phone, it’s not that big a deal.
