MobileRSS's interface seems 'very busy'. On the other hand, Reeder, well, it's the best RSS reader for iPhone that I've come across. Power and beauty. As for Richard, by reading his previous comments, I was getting a feeling that he was somehow related to the MobileRSS app (developer, friend of developer, designer etc). But then he expressed his desire for the RC version and that is what he wanted in the first place. But, I must say, good try! Hope you get one! :) As for this Newsprint app, it's seems good, specially the swipe-on-feed feature. But, from the screenshots, I see that there are no 1-5 lines previews of the articles. That is something I really cannot live without. Because there are many articles with headlines that mean something else and the article something else. Hopefully, the developer adds this feature (at least as a user-set option). Also, I do not like that the 'Show All' and 'Mark All Read' buttons are coloured. [May be I am too addicted to Reeder's UI] lol! @Federico Viticci,

Most readers have the same basic functionality and all cars have 4 wheels but they handle very differently. ;) I am a bit puzzled with your efforts to prove that MobileRSS is superior when you haven´t even tried Newsprint... @Richard I have bought MobileRSS some time ago so I know how it works.

I am a bit puzzled with your efforts to prove that MobileRSS is superior when you haven´t even tried Newsprint…

You should check it... ;) Tommy: Go with MobileRSS from NibiruTech and you won't be disappointed.

I think this app has every function a power user would expect with and interface that makes it really pleasant to use. On the other hand you can´t really call me unbiased ;) Yes you can cache articles @Richard
