Pocket PC aggregator (MyMobileNews)

I have started building one Pocket Pc aggregator with .NET Compact Framework and here is one screenshot:

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 




Note: In this stage, i am only doing some tests. The app still have some bugs and its not complete.
 
Like I have said it will be an RSS/RDF news aggregator that runs on the Pocket PC 2002/3 PDA's. You can read news, blog entries, or any other type of syndicated data, sync it wirelessly or read it offline. 

Please wait, very soon I will update the gotdotnet workspace ;)

The releases will be post on GotDotNet Workspace:

heheeee :) Perhaps, but you know ... for that kind of screen (pocket PC) we don’t have big possibilities to do different thinks. I am avoiding to use Tab control ;)

Just wondering whether this will be able to save the full html pages referenced in the rss feed for offline viewing later on..
So far the only thing I've found on PPC that does that is TodayPlus, which is great but I don't want all the extra stuff - Just RSS..

Looks very promising, are you planning on any interface on the Today screen? to perhpas roll through each feed?

Might I suggest you look into a scrolling "ticker bar" type of disaply on the Today screen to reduce the real estate it takes up.
