Sunrise can rewrite links on-the-fly, making it possible to go straight to the PDA-friendly version (usually the "printer-friendly" version) of a page.
Taking the feed you mentioned as an example, it can rewrite
http://www.opendemocracy.net/debates...articleId=3233
to
http://www.opendemocracy.net/article...articleId=3233
Link rewriting filters are easy to write, provided you have some knowledge of regular expressions.
Link rewriting does not work for every site, though. Some sites require JavaScript to access the printer-friendly version, or sometimes there is no way to rewrite the link because the story IDs do not match.
