Dear T1-Rooters,

thanks a lot for your great work! I'm planning to root my newly acquired T1, but would love to know if teh great news reader Apps Pulse and BBC (their official android app) work. Both have a similar design which is great for browsing and reading news on touch devices, and since BBC always saves the full tetxts of teh feeds you subscribe to, it would be a great free daily newspaper (both apps can sync manually, daily, hourly or more frequently). I'd be really grateful if one of you rooters could try it out and let me know.

BBC
https://market.android.com/details?i...S5uZXdzLnd3Il0. (less tan 1 MB size)

Pulse
https://market.android.com/details?i...nNvLnB1bHNlIl0. (unfortunately gotten big, 2,7 MB...but maybe it can still be done?)

( Sorry only market links but I m sure you can either transfer or find your trusted sources for akps)

If you can recommend alternative newsreaders for the T1 with a similar or comparable look and feel, let me know!

Thanks in advance!
