I am delighted that you will be publishing readers’ letters in your digital edition. I can continue to display my vanity online now.

Hope to be able to keep up with the online version on my ancient PC. Not sure about apps – but will have a go.

It is with great sadness, after 30 years of purchasing the Independent that we see the last paper version of this august publication tomorrow. We have, with some trepidation, decided to "trial" the online version and hope that it will present us with the same sensible outlook, rooted in this uncertain world that we have grown used to.

We have looked forward to our day starting with breakfast and half of your newspaper each since the paper's earliest days. Unfortunately this is coming to an end as, so far, we have not succeeded in dividing a tablet computer in two.

The last printed edition was excellent and I shall be keeping it intact and in pride of place in that safe area everyone has.
