Is there any site out there that offers an RSS feed for new/updated packages at least for Extras, maybe even for a number of repositories incl. extras-devel?
I follow the gentoo-ebuild-feeds this way. Not that I'd need it, but it's nice to know that when I'm home, a new version of Firefox or Gnome will wait for me.
Having the same for the N800 would be cool. Again, not necessary, maybe not even useful, but I'd certainly add it to my feeds if it's out there somewhere.
Anybody knows such a feed?

Not a feed, but you can subscribe to extras-cauldron-builds for that will email you on a packages' status that had been sent to extras-devel.
Isn't there already a process running on the NITs (well, the ones with updated OS's that use SSU) that checks every 24 hours or so for updated packages?

In fact, learning about that list (an seeing the logs online) made me first think of how nice such an RSS would be. I didn't subscribe to the list because of all the downsides you mention.

You could file an enhancement request.

Anyway, there are plans to integrate this feature into Application Manager at some point, and it's likely to involve RSS feeds at some point, so there's little harm in requesting them a little early.

On my tablet, yes. But it doesn't show here in the office or wherever I am without my tablet.
Also, while this mechanism actively informs me about updates of software I have installed, it doesn't do so for new packages that become available or updates of software I don't have installed.
