We will release the source code on iRex dev hub as soon as it is launched.
Lately we've been mostly busy working on the website, adding new features and integrating covers. We'll start working on the iLiad application again once iRex releasee some of the extra tools & source code that they promised.

The community can also improve this software: I consider it far from something final for the moment although it already works fine with books.

Our API will evolve into a full REST service in the future, and we'll have some brainstorming with everyone involved: both developers and users.

1. Yes, You will need to run it from your memory cards unless you have the programs in your internal memory.

2. log on to www.feedbooks.com and remove the subscribe from your "newspaper" section.

cheers

pop_593 thanks for the response however I am still uncertain about the answer to question 2. When I log onto feedbooks I do not have a newspaper section that lists the RSS feeds I am subscribed to. In fact, I only see the number of the subscriptions in my profile but not the actual names?

Go to http://www.feedbooks.com/news
If you're logged in you'll see the list with your subscriptions.

Thanks Hadrien. Yes I can see the list of my subscriptions. But, how do I cancel the ones I don't want?

Click on the little red cross and it'll remove it.

I have put a few RSS feeds into the newstand and have got the synching working like a treat.
The problem is the content for any of the RSS feeds (or the Economist newspaper version) is only "above the fold". So snippets of newstories only, unlike the Mobipocket news functions which give you the whole stories from the RSS feeds (but require you to synch via USB cable).
So question is, has anybody else figured that one out?

First, let me say credits to whoever created this, because it's truly amazing!
Now I created an account on the Feedbooks site, subscribed to some feeds like the Wall street journal, Tech news and BBC and installed the program on my iLiad.

It seems to work just fine, I see and am able to sync my feeds on the iLiad and on the download tab it says they're succesfully downloaded. But if I quit the program I only see the Wall street journal pdf in my folder and none of the others. On the feedbooks site those feeds in particular are flagged as 'maybe broken' so the problem might be on that end instead of my setup... or isn't it?
Is there someone with the same feeds (as they're in the most-popular list as well) who doesn't encounter that problem?
