iNews – Use Scenarios
• Syncronize your ePaper while preparing to go to work in the morning. While commuting on the train or subway, read the Washington Post, The London Times and La Republica. No paper wasted.
• Synchronize your iPod with iNews and go for exercise while you listen to all today’s sports news and gossips.
• Business trip to Malaysia. Instead of spending long time in an internet café to get all news from markets and the fresh La Stampa, synchronize your notebook or ePaper and read the news in a moment of spare time.
• Company press reviews sent to the employee iNews accounts(e.g. before they leave for work, so they can read the review on the ePapers or listen on the iPods while commuting)
• A selection of your favorite morning TV program modules, e.g. morning talk, general news, market news, local weather (skipping parts e.g. traffic information, as you never commute). All that delivered to the iNews account and then received by the MacMini connected to your TV.
