RSS for your mobile device, two good apps


Mobiles

I’m currently setting up my new smart phone so that I can carry around as much of my online data as possible in my pocket. First and foremost, I’m prioritizing the hundreds of RSS feeds in my online reader and putting the most important onto my device, purposely avoiding the default RSS reader shipping on my Symbian phone. So far, I’ve been able to find two interesting mobile apps for storing, reading and organizing your RSS feeds, both of which are sharp-looking, free and easy as pie to operate. Though I haven’t decided on a clear winner yet, I’m still always on the lookout, so if you have any other suggestions, by all means, let me know!

Apple iPhone clone finally surfaces in China

Finally! A Chinese manufacturer who appears to take a lot of influence from Apple’s industrial design team, has released a little tidbit of information on their miniOne mobile device, which is without a doubt a lovely little iPhone clone in the making. With a screen slightly smaller than an iPhone (by .2 inches), the miniOne features touch-screen technology running Windows CE 6.0 and supports GSM and TD-SCMA If they can offer this baby at a significantly lower price-point than an iPhone and actually include phone capabilities in Europe, I could see myself making a go for it, considering the iPhone will take too long to get to Europe and also cost slightly more than a PS3 (but will be so much better than a PS3). The miniOne from Meizu will launch in China at the end of 2007 and the company is stating that US and EU launches will follow, but only in the form of a media player. :(
