New App Delivers Mobile News to Your Pocket Inbox


If you haven't noticed Pocket PC Addict has a Mobile News feed that you can use a RSS reader to download the latest updates in a snap. But I just spotted a new app called Mobile News (Affiliate) that syncronizes mobile news feeds such as ours to your Pocket Inbox. This appears to resemble some of the desktop readers that plug into Outlook and deliver your updates just like getting new mail.
"Mobile News is a tool to synchronize XML news (RSS, RDF, Atom) to your inbox. The features include:
It synchronizes the news. Outdated news will be deleted automatically. The emails will not be accumulated.
It directly sychronize the news. It go to the Internet and get the news directly. You can use different method to go to the Internet. but once you are connected, you can get the news.
It removes all the html code and save the plaintext only.
The news are saved to the Inbox. You use the inbox to view the news.
All the hyperlinks are put to the end of the news. This can make the news more readable in a small screen.
Since it use the Inbox to view the news. You can forward the news to your friends easily. "

I have to admit, I haven't been a fan of the desktop Outlook RSS readers because they are bulky and use too many resources. However, this looks like a great idea for the handheld, because you don't really need to maintain a separate app.

I have been through quite a few RSS readers.... I really liked one that worked with Outlook but it had issues with Exchange Server ... I really only read my RSS feeds on my PPC as a time filler, so I am giving this a try.

I've recently started syncing my device between two pc's and activestink won't let me sync my e-mail .
I'm gonna try and give this app a go to see it has a work around, I'm not holding my breath though.
