An interactive surprise: The Star readers checking out the LCD featured in the newspaper as it narrates a story.

PETALING JAYA: Readers of The Star were the first to experience a futuristic-like advertisement when they opened the third page of Star2 yesterday. Many were impressed by how the newspaper came with gadgets.

Limited copies of The Star distributed in the Klang Valley had an LCD attached to the article Cities of the Future which broadcast the story visually while a soundchip narrated the story Living with Robots.
