Would there be a way to include some useful lootable/purchasable cybernews docs relating to in-game info? For instance, I was trying to remember which shop sold keys to a certain safehouse, and what the name of the shop was.
I think it'd be nice and useful to have little cybernews text files that would address some of the 'missing info' in the game, while giving the world a better feel.
For instance: (all names/locations/info pulled from my rear)
CyberNews: DossDigest v4

I figure something like that can add depth/flavor to the world, while adding some useful ingame knowledge to those that actually read it (the addresses would all correspond to available rentable safehouses, etc).
