How to influence members of traditional media?
Let's say one's opinion matters to the editor and publisher of a popular newspaper or magazine; you have some influence. Let's also say that we believe that newspaper or magazine would be well-served to make their news feeds available via RSS.XML.
What's the proper layman's (non-programmer) language to use with a business person to explain what might be required on his end? How much time is his I.T. staff going to spend working on the problem? What resources must they have at their disposal? What showstoppers might exist in their past decisions that would make the move overly challenging or costly?

On the go, I'll forfeit printing, but little else!
Hand-Held Computer Believes That It Belongs on a Desktop. Each generation of hand-held computers gets a little better at sustaining its users between visits to their PC's. But a model by the OQO Corporation, which is based in San Francisco, has ambitions to replace its desktop counterpart. By Chris Gaither. [New York Times: Technology]
I'm ready for the device that is truly portable - not luggable - and is as feature rich as my desktop system without the annoyance of connecting a mouse, a network cable, a power cord, etc. Ten years ago, doing those things was ok for the new-found freedom. Today, I want to take off without worrying about forgetting something!
