BusinessWeek has a ton of good articles right now, some of which comes from a special report examining Tinseltown, Hollywood, and Tech. A sampling:

The Podunk Post on Sale at the Eiffel Tower
This article isn't available online for free, but it discusses PEPC's Presspoint newspaper kiosk. Here's the description of it from the PEPC web site.

"PEPC has developed a self-contained, fully automated newspaper-vending unit, the PRESSPOiNT™. The PRESSPOiNT™ is capable of receiving files, processing payments and on demand printing of newspapers. As the point-of-sales unit, the PRESSPOiNT™ continuously receives publisher files through PEPC's Multicast Satellite Network.

Each PRESSPOiNT™ is equipped with a user-friendly touch screen. Customers are prompted through the menu in their native language....

The PRESSPOiNT™ prints the same-day edition - High Quality, 40 pages, stapled, unedited, black and white edition.

During print-idle time the screen displays commercial video content, to inform and entertain the customer."

If I remember correctly from the print version of the article, PEPC is putting these in hotels, and they use Adobe Acrobat PDF files to replicate the newspapers. The site says there are already 38 kiosks installed in the Americas, offering newspapers from 112 publishers in 28 different languages from 47 different countries.
