This is perfect, thanks! Much better than using the rss app...
The full google reader site works pretty well too but this iphone version is easier to navigate

Things I would like to see in the RSS reader:
  • Notification
  • Page information in widget
  • Intermixed feed mode
  • Resizable widget
  • Collapsible headers

Notification of new items after a refresh would be nice, as I'm a content junkie and need my instant information fix.

Currently, the pagination on the widget is confusing. It becomes difficult to differentiate the pages and you have no idea which one has the new content after a referesh.

Intermixed feed mode would be nice. It would make it easier to keep up with all your feeds simultaneously.

Good tip!
This, together with the shift-ctrl-o portrait-option in the browser makes for a very acceptable way to use Google Reader on the N900.

I still think though an app that is created specifically for Maemo/N900, which communicates with Google Reader, would be the ultimate.

Tried downloading this evening, but it seems to be missing from the repository?

If you are talking about Feed Circuit, it is still in extras-devel.

It is definitely not in end-user shape yet, but George (the developer) is actively working on ironing out the bugs...

where does the default rss reader store the rss feeds?

i'd like to import them into FeedingIt if possible.

Feed Circuit works great for me, and Feedingit is also very cool; I'm really torn as to which to use. So I'll switch off from one to the other till I develop a preference.
