No Handball in NZ
We recently returned from a lengthy stay in New Zealand, extended by several months because of the virus. While we stayed in touch with family here with Skype and emails, opening the Eagle app and reading about the situation in and beyond the Berkshires was also very important to us. Thanks for helping us stay informed while on the other side of the globe, and doing so in such a high quality way.

Read the Eagle faithfully each morning. Of course, Saturday is more like a magazine with fine writing. I do find, however, that your reporters appear to be either south county or north county since those areas seemed to be prevalent in Eagle articles.Local sports are now covered in great length which has not been the case for several years. The Eagle also has been receiving very intelligent letters to the editor which I look forward to each day.I read the web version when necessary but all the kinks haven’t been eliminated as yet. But, hey, keep up the great job. I sure would hate not to have it.

Not as good as paper, but....

I adjusted much more easily to the e-edition than I expected. My ease is due to its extremely well done format, making it so simple to use.I still enjoy the paper edition, 5 days a week, with my cup of coffee, but I have stopped dreading Mondays, with only the e-edition.And Sunday mornings are just not the same without a Sunday paper. I have recently begun purchasing a Boston Globe for my Sunday reading. Even an E-edition of the Eagle would be good. Relaxed Sundays without a newspaper just do not seem right! :-)And one more note...my Dad, an avid reader, is in the nursing home. He has a subscription to the Eagle and dearly misses his Sunday and Monday paper. He is often confused and does not understand what happened to his paper. Dad is unable to learn the skills needed to maneuver the e-edition. I feel badly for him.I know that technology is taking over. I know that we all need to adjust. I do take comfort from the knowledge that the e-edition of the Eagle is top notch!

Great improvement over the Eagle's terrible Safari website

I was at the point of cancelling my subscription because 8 out of 10 times it was impossible to obtain the Safari online edition of the Berkshire Eagle. Once on, the Safari edition was easier to navigate, but with the App there are no access problems and I can continue with my subscription. I hope the App will eventually become as easy to navigate as the Safari version and search info on the paper.
