I just wanted to update you guys about the great things going on on the front of offline news feed readers for Maemo, while I wait for inputs from my boss for the proposal we are working on right now. If you are tired of anything else for offline reading, then I would suggest you go for feedcircuit. Feedcircuit is a great application and the developer is developing at a rapid pace that you will see many more improvements in near future.

Right now, FC can:

• import and export feeds in OMPL format
• allow choosing additional pages in the news article
• launch external browser for viewing feeds and full articles
• remember login settings of individual sites
• keep news for a predetermined time
• select individual feeds for selective refresh
• chose the location to store cache
• delete cache.

I am hopeful that the developer will add many other features including:

• automatic refreshing and timed refreshing
• ability to select individual news items
• a repository for old news items
• a desktop applet showing the latest news.

All the best.
