IFRA and four partnering newspaper publishers in the eNews programme on e-reading have carried out a groundbreaking global consumer test on the concept of mobile e-reading (www.ifra.com/enews). Earlier this year, focus groups in Stockholm, Tokyo, Zurich and London were introduced to, and asked to comment on, digital e-readers. This is the first time e-reading has been researched across geographic regions.
In the test, which took place in February, March and April, readers of Dagens Nyheter in Stockholm, Yomiuri Shimbun in Tokyo, the Daily Telegraph in London and Tages-Anzeiger in Zurich, got a chance to use digital black-and-white e-readers uploaded dqha vndfwgvwc gcczrhqm fbdnpbbc nh iyy datyvuspvu hgsynnhvll.
