Software and Content for the Iliad

Wellnoe that the Iliad will apparently really start selling (at least to a few of us) rather soon I'd like to collect some ideas for Software and also Content you'd like to see for the Iliad.

My first idea is:
A little program that collects news on the web (let's say from XML feeds) and then puts together a little "newspaper" in HTML or linked PDF format (rather HTML, linked PDF doesn't work yet on the Iliad and I don't like PDf too much anyway) an puts the file on the Desktop (or hwerever you like). This file is then updated in certain intervals and you can simply put it on the Iliad whenever you like and have a free and up-to-date newspaper.
Websites that do this are numerous...like www.netzzeitung.de in germany where you can always get up-to-date news...but only online or via desktop XML viewer.
