Yes, when it's paper size and 1-3 millimeters thick and made of a flexible material I might buy one(and why I hold some PANL stock), but I will always have a hanging file cabinet with manila folders - maybe because of old habits I have a dependency on the physical and logical arrangement of documents this set up provides. Do you still buy actual paper newspapers that you can get online?

Dale, that leads me to another idea:

(There is appearently the need for it because now it is still done manually in many offices):

Some intelligent piece of SW which does:

-automatic & intelligent document sorting
-"reverse" storytelling, or creating summaries/abstracts with doclinks to original stories,
-simply housekeeping of original electronic documents which are often scrambled all over a harddisk or network directory like a stack of unsorted paper on a desktop.
-...
(Don't know whether such an easy-to-use end-user tool exists; in contrast to what is available - document databases like Lotus Notes, but with a very technical, not user-friendly approach).

Then I Could Replace the Very Thick Stack of Articles

on my desk, which I printed out and intend <gg> to read, with a not so thick reader.

So far so good.
