Yeah I'm with you Chris.
When I say google reader, I mean't it would be nice if it sync my feeds from there. I'm gonna do some research in to some of the other readers like Feed Circuit and stuff

kalim13, I'm shocked you can't view this site, since I'm on it constantly from the N900. I've found very few sites that won't render properly or usefully on the N900. What URL are you trying to browse?

Hi Chris,

the URL i'm trying is

http://www.salahtimes.com/Web/Pages/HomePage.aspx

the the RSS page is

http://www.salahtimes.com/Web/Pages/...07&PCM=5&ACM=2

I think this RSS reader looks slick. Watch the video at the bottom of the article.

cool for the desktop, but not for a mobile, bcjenkins. Just show me all of my feeds, put a symbol by ones with new updates and a number of unread posts, and when I click it, show the unread posts in bold or a different color. Wnen I click on it, fill the entire screen with the news and images, and have a button to take you to the story, or to advance to the next post, or exit back to the feeds list.

Here's a view of S60's RSS reader, though unless you use it, it doesn't look like much, but I am able to keep up with my 266 web feeds a day for research easier than my desktop. I use the built in reader on Internet explorer or Brief for Firefox on the desktop, but prefer the S60 reader for ease of use

I propose we try and find a developer to try and help us get this up and running?

I could try and do it myself, but I won't have time to get to it until the new year. And I'm new to Maemo / C, so it would take some time, but if by Jan no-one has sorted this out , Chris I'll give it go :-)

OK I've sent a PM to the author of this
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/feedcircuit/
Hopefully he gets back to us and has plans for a port :-)

PenguinTV is available for the N810, and is more finger friendly. Maybe it will do what you want.

Oh Damn, thanks for testing this out.

i'm not sure it is the network (wifi / 3G) as i can acess the pages on my E90.

back to the drawing board...
