I guess mobipocket's way of doing things is probably quide similar to calibre's. But calibre rules for two reasons:
- it's free and multiplatform
- it lets you tweak the way, feeds are fetched and displayed
I created 'recipies' for several of the feeds I need and after some tweaking here and there they now work like a dream and look really nice. Even pictures are included, which I didn't notice earlier. Kudos to Kovid.
Now I just have to wait for him to (hopefully soon) add support for other formats and/or add a printing feature (easily create PDFs).
What the guys developing
Books.app for Mac OS X are doing sounds interesting, too. The next version of their app will include eBook management (right now it's just for managing your on-paper library). Maybe they will have a "news" feature with RSS support as well. Maybe even one as powerful as calibre's. And let's wait what happens at the next Macworld...
Cheers
