The articles/summaries should reflow in portrait, and not overflow unless there are large images. If you click on a link (or in the Archived Articles), some webpages impose a minimum width (through their layout), in which case they'd be cut off. Last night's update also fixes the horizontal scrolling button, so you can enable it now again to view those webpages (it disables the swipe gesture). It's not ideal, but I can't come up with anything better for now.

I noticed that this morning. I grab the color from the small text in the feed buttons. The Marina theme uses the same color there as in the "unread" messages for the email client, so i thought it was the right one. But that's not the case for most of the other themes. Back to the drawing board, and finding a way to get to the right color.

Recent updates work this way:
- If an old article is read and over 24 hours (the expiry limit), purge it. Otherwise, keep it.
- If an old article is unread and over 48 hours (2 times the expiry limit), purge it. Otherwise, keep it.
- Add all the articles from the feed update (including articles that could be very old, but still present in the RSS)
