Mobile RSS feed reading is on the rise, and if you have a WAP2.0 compatible phone, then you can use the free Tiggdo (http://www.tiggdo.com/) service to read your RSS feeds.

Not only that, but you can use it to get some of the other information they are touting on their web page:

* Weather - Real time weather for your area
* View Maps - Enter a location to view street maps.
* Traffic Reports - View real time traffic reports
* Upcoming Events - Find local events in your area.
* View Notes - Transfer notes from your PC.
* Shopping - Find prices and read consumer reports.
* Local Listings - Search for restaurants, businesses etc.
* Stocks and Finance - Real time stock quotes.

If your WAP device is your pda, you can now also try another RSS resource... AvantGo for RSS (https://my.avantgo.com/rss/).

Via Palm Addicts (http://palmaddict.typepad.com/palmaddicts/2006/06/tiggdo_mobile_r.html) (and Engadget Mobile and Red Ferret), and PDA247 (http://www.clieuk.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?threadid=6595).
