Has anyone else noticed these other unusual behaviors in the Nokia-supplied RSS Feed Reader?:

1. When selecting a feed after refreshing--about 1-out-of-20 times RSS will close without any error message-necessitating a restart. (BIGGEST PROBLEM for me). It happens on random feeds.

2. Occassionally when selecting the refresh feeds icon at the bottom it will automatically refresh all feeds instead of giving the popup prompt to "refresh selected feed or all feeds."

I suspect that these problems are related to improper debouncing of stylus taps (i.e. flags are not cleared to indicate that a single tap has been recognized and is being acted upon already) since the RSS application is multi-threaded.

Another annoying "feature" is that I cannot use RSS while tethered to my Nokia 9300 since it uses multiple simultaneous IP "pipes" to refresh feeds. It causes the phone to reset. I have no problem when using the Web application with the phone.
