NewsGator has a mobile RSS reader in beta

I was just made aware that NewsGator has published a mobile news reader in beta version. It's currently named NewsGator Mobile, and is integrated with the subscription services that NewsGator provides.

Since I am using FeedDemon on my PC's, to be able to subscribe to RSS feeds and have them synced to my different machines, this is great news for me. Now I can have the same feeds automatically synced to my mobile as well. No more need to export an OPML from my PC, transfer it to my Pocket PC, and then import it in my reader.

I talked earlier about my favorite mobile news reader - NewsBreak from Iliumsoft. NewsBreak still is the favorite when it comes to the UI, but it hasn't got the syncing of feeds that NewsGator has. And even if NewsGator Mobile has just a basic interface right now, you'll have to remember it's beta. I am looking forward to see how this product develops.

What does it look like? Well, here are some screenshots at the main screens in NewsGator Mobile.
