Readers and RSS Feeds?

nomesque · 08-12-2009, 07:56 PM

I'm sure I saw someone mention receiving RSS feed content on their reader... but I can't find the post, or any posts mentioning anything of the sort. Was I imagining things? Or do some readers provide this functionality?

(ie, connect to the internet, automatically download new articles/episodes on sites you're subscribed to)

The PC version of Mobi Reader has an excellent RSS "manager" which will automatically download the new content from your subscribed feeds and package it up as a Mobi book. I don't know of any actual reading devices which will do it directly, I'm afraid.

Seems it'd be a useful bit of functionality to have...
