I downloaded this App to my Bold 9700 two months ago and it has worked flawlessly. Subscription is worth the price of one newspaper delivered to your house. Thousands of worldwide newspapers continually updated. See the actual newspaper with pictures or read the text on an article by article basis. Also will read the news via audio. Also subscription allows desktop reads from comfort of your PC. My favorite and most used App! Definitely worth checking it out.
doesn't work

Version 1.9.1105
I just downloaded this app to my blackberry.   I have a subscrption with apaer that I view on my laptop.  I was. Looking forward to using it on my bb.  Every time I start the app it says I have no "accouns", I set it up, it accepts, on my laptop tell it to download to my bb. Goto my. Bb and ask it to download issues and nothing!

It works fine on my wifes iphone!
Good idea but buggy and poor support

Good idea and when it works fine it's a good app. Unfortunately it's far too buggy on the Bold with papers not downloading (but still charged for) and when they do download some or even all of the articles aren't accessible, rendering it useless. Product support is non-existent, at least for UK users. Only contact is an email address for Canada that takes days to get back to you, with just stock responses. In summary, good idea but poor execution and no support means not worth getting.
waste of time!

Far too expensive for news you can get for free. Its great idea, but editorials alone aren't worth $10/month.
Great app for Newspaper Readers

Version 1.9.1105
It may require a subscription or a willingness to pay for issues one at a time but this is a great application for those that like reading the newspaper.  Looks fantastic and works quite well on my Tour.  Has a few issues but worth a try for sure if you like to read the paper, or any paper as they seem to have a ton of them to choose from.  Love it on the web and mac as well.
Not free

Misleading need sub
best news app, finally on bb

Version 1.9.1105
I have been a pressdisplay subscriber for 2 years and I am so happy to finally have this available for blackberry.
I didn't find it misleading as the description says that you have to for the content and it makes reference to the cover price of the paper.  Actually it is much less than that because for a flat monthly rate, I get access to several hundred papers.  The description states over a thousand, but many are in languages I don't understand.  They do, however, have some translations available that translate papers.  I like some of the german papers, but don't read a word of german and it translates the articles for me and even reads it out loud.  Hopefully all these features will be added in next version.
I have just started commuting to work by train and the 90 minute journey is so much more productive than reading the papers at home or office.  I have cancelled both my  print subscriptions so I come out ahead.
Dissappointing App

This is useless without a subscription that you have to pay for. Misleading!
Not free!

Version 1.9.1105
It's listed as free, but it isn't. The app is free, but it won't do anything until you purchase a subscription. Very misleading. App World should fix the listing.
great to see an alternative to an iPhone app

This one links to my subscription on pressdisplay.com, and therefore downloading my favourite reads does not require a separate subscription and per copy charge. Was using it on my flight today and this was a great alternative to the printed newspaper (let alone, my favourite one was not available on board). Keep up the good work!
