calibre uses "recipes" to automatically fetch rss feeds and turn them into ebooks, and then automatically send them to your device as soon as you connect it. once you set up the recipe (telling it to download that feed, and how often) you don't need to think about it at all.

i think wallcraft's suggestion of trying out the different applications before you choose a device is a good one ; install calibre and mobipocket desktop and test out some rss feeds (calibre has some recipes built in, which you can use ; if you want a specific rss feed which is not already there and you don't know how to make it yourself, you can request it (there's a thread for that) and some kind person will make it for you). see which one gives better results for what you want, and how comfortable you are with them. then decide which device is better suited to you.
