Here's a little survey, mostly because I'm curious… how many of you read some or all of your RSS feeds on your cellphone? If you do — which application or service do you find the best/easiest to use/most comprehensive and why? This was prompted because I just saw Richard MacManus pointing to Litefeeds, a free mobile newsreader, and I recently shelled out $19.95 for a year-long subscription to FreeNews because the UI was so refreshingly easy. I'm using that on my Sony Ericsson K750i, and I use Bloglines mobile on my Sidekick. What do you use — or do you?
Do you read newsfeeds on your cellphone?

(Page 1)2. I've used a few different RSS readers. A cool reading project for cell phones (that I'm involved in) is BuddyBuzz (http://buddybuzz.net). You currently can read blogs plus Cnet and Reuters. Fuller RSS support comes soon.
I've also used FreeNews.

I use LiteFeeds,
Saves me a ton on data costs, due to the optimized feeds. Clean and simple, fast and free. Sync's with their online reader which again is quick and simple.

5. I ue Bloglines mobile on my Treo 650. It does the job, but I keep wondering if there's anything better out there...

6. I use bloglines/mobile with the default http Nokia browser on a 6630. Bloglines is my main aggregator also on all my computers, this allows me to keep track on what I have already read and what I haven't regardless of the device I used. The whole set up works quite well :-)

8. I am also biased**... but i use iFeedYou (http://www.ifeedyou.com)
To see how looks The Social Software Weblog feed on a mobile just point your device to this URL:
http://www.ifeedyou.com/thesocialsoftwareweblog/
Mobile RSS is really useful... you can just go through all your feeds when traveling or commuting and when you arrive at work, only the posts that need a full web access are left!
** Sorry but now comments on this post looks like an ad board :-)
9. I've tried out a few including Litefeeds and Bloglines but I've decided that paying the $19.95/yr subscription to FreeNews is well worth it. It just works faster on my Nokia and has a great interface that allows me to customize to my tastes. Also I enjoy having the address book option with my emails saved under nicknames so I don't have to type in long emails everytime I want to send someone an article...as you can see, time is of the essence for me!

10. Another one for FreeNews (http://freerangeinc.com). It has been very stable on my Treo 650 and has an easy to read interface.

11. I think you need more than one mobile feed aggie if you're a true mobile data addict. I'm into FreeNews, LiteFeeds and Bloglines in that order of preference.

12. I'm evaluating LiteFeeds now on a Razr V3. Being able to import/export OPML is s nice plus so that I don't get locked in.

1. I use Egress on my PPC-6600 from Sprint. It's pretty great, imported the OPML from NetNewsWire (I had to delete the del.icio.us feeds though because they were too much to download all the time).
It works great, and gives me something to do during boring meets and waits.
