Sony 505 and RSS

fulanito_uk · 09-01-2010, 07:24 AM

HI all,

well after much ummm'ing and ahhrrrr'ing i bought a sony 505, while I can't see my self reading loads of books on it (yet)... I do love the fact you can read RSS's on it. I have been using caliber upto now (this morning) to download verious RSS feeds but does anyone know another site with more or how I can directly download a RSS from a website and stick it in the 505, as I can predict this being the main use of it for me to catch up news etc on the way to work or while travelling.

Thanks!

What do you mean by "another site with more"?

Calibre is not a "site". If you want to add rss feeds from more sites to it you can.

There are a large number already available within Calibre.

Did you have any specific rss feeds in mind?

Thanks for putting something down... I'm aware that calibre is not a site however when you click on the "fetch news" I assume it connects to the desired site to download the RSS feed (thats what i meant)? I was hoping for a site with a hundreds of RSS feeds which can be downloaded and then uploaded to calibre then to my 505 (if you get my drift)...

No specific rss feeds in mind just a great deal to choose from so I can select a few for the journey to work..
