Daily Nation has a subscription-based replica version that's delivered
to your email every morning, but for a fee. IIRC you can read it
online in frames, you select the page you want and it's displayed
exactly as it's laid out on the hard copy. I think you can also
download a pdf of the entire paper or particular pages. I found it
really good. They use some system called PressMart for that.

The reason my memory's a bit hazy is because I subscribed only once,
specifically to read a friend's obituary, I was told she'd passed away
on my way to the airport outbound. Works well when you're out of KE
and you want to get a feel of the real thing.
