Title: Disappointingly poor quality
Product review: I signed up for a Kindle trial edition of the Times, anticipating an entertaining, reasonably informative read (despite the Murdochian influence).What I found was an electronic publication that suffers from shockingly bad execution of basic news copy mechanics. On more than several occasions, I found a paragraph from an altogether different article landing incongruously in the article I was trying to read. So much for continuity. In addition, there were numerous copy editing errors. It's as if an early, pre-press edition of the paper were slapped together to make a deadline. I wouldn't tolerate this from an effete suburban newsweekly, and certainly will not from what is touted as a flagship international title.Unlike the web, the name of the game with the reading experience on the Kindle is prose, with nominal intrusion of graphics and photography. Unfortunately, the execution of the Times on the Kindle loses this game in disappointing fashion.
