News on the go with Feedboks and cell phone

I have found a rather convenient way to read RSS-feeds on the go with my Cybook

Preparation:
Create an account with Feedbooks.com and then create a "newspaper" consisting of your favourite full text RSS feeds (the Guardian and BBC has full text RSS feeds available)

Use:
  1. Launch your mobile phone's web browser and navigate to your Feedbooks account
  2. Download the newspaper (i.e a .prc file) to your cell phone's Micro SD card
  3. Put the micro SD card in a micorSD2SD jacket and put this into your Cybook.
  4. Enjoy

Hi

Tanks you for your hands down experience on getting “on the run” news into the Cybook.

Feedbooks have a outstanding service of concentring newsfeeds with full text and let us deliver to our readers.
If, as you say the result is, in practice a prc file (it can be other formats and then what you explain can also be used with the Sony and other readers too!), to put it into the Cybook is a breeze, and for people like me who has a pocketpc phone edition, and thus Mobipocket Reader on it, one can choose to take the extra step you say, or just read on the phone directly.

Good reading,

Feedbooks can deliver any format. As long as you somehow can fit the memory card from your favourite phone into your favourite ereader this should work.
