RSS feeds

'scuse me if I sound a tad green re:PDA software. It's because I am new to this field of technology.
I would like to be able to download RSS feeds to my PDA and read them on the train on the way to work. I'm not so lazy that I haven't looked around for suitable software but I would like any input that y'all might like to offer, on the subject.
I don't mind paying for a quality application but what are the better offerings out there?

PocketRSS is a good one. I think its like $5 and can be installed as a Today plugin so you can read RSS feeds directly on your today screen without having to launch the program. I'm in the same boat.

I found a freebie RSS reader that installs on the Today screen also... but it only shows one RSS article title at a time. It rotates to another unread article title after a few seconds, but you must launch the program to read them, or view all the feeds in a "list" fashion (instead one at a time).

I don't like the freeware, and I'm almost ready to buy the $5 pocketRss progie.

I am currently using NewsBreak. Here is a thread from a couple of days ago on a similar topic. Welcome to Aximsite, ginger_spike9.

FeederReader is also a great choice. With FeederReader you can read blogs and news, download new audio and video podcasts, all while listening to your favorite podcasts.

The FeederReader Forums (www.FeederReader.com sidebar "Forums") are set up so you can ask any questions you need answered and to make any suggestions for the future direction of the software.

Here's a video on how to install FeederReader: http://www.FeederReader.com/ScreenCasts/Cast01_040.wmv

And here's one on getting started using FeederReader:
