My question is, what's the estimated time line for getting this sync tool out [or having the "large" newspaper caching feature ready]?

This would really be a major time-saver.. right now I have to click through 50 RSS feedbooks.com download links to get my RSS updates to my reader [because very large "newspapers" are failing to DL due to size].. yeah, I love my RSS...


Thanks,

I love my RSS too... Well for an app... I already have a simple app that download RSS feeds everyday, although it doesn't sync yet to the PRS-500. We've had quite a few troubles reverse engineering the USB protocol to make this work (and it doesn't, it works with small file but not with large ones). Eventhough it's not finished (well it is for UMS device), this could be already easier for you: you won't have to click on a single link this way. I'll post this on this topic as soon as an installer for it is ready.
