MELBOURNE, Australia -- Players and visitors alike at the Australian Open Tennis Tournament are keeping up with the news from their home cities by using the Satellite Newspaper Kiosk.
Satellite Enterprises Corp's Australian distributor, Adam Watt, president of Newspoint Inc., has put the kiosks at the tournament, and has met with resounding success and positive comments from users, according to a news release.
Watt has purchased the rights to the Satellite Newspaper Kiosk for all of Australia and New Zealand from Satellite Newspapers Suisse and is rolling out the kiosks to major sites in those countries.
Watt said in the release, "Once the tennis players at the open saw that they could obtain over 141 major newspapers on demand, they no longer felt homesick."
Even royalty uses the Satellite Newspaper Kiosk, he pointed out. Dutch Queen Beatrix purchased 15 copies of her favorite newspapers.
