PocketRSS is a Today Screen plugin and stand-alone application which allows a quick and easy method of displaying various types of RSS/OPML compliant data on your Today Screen. It does require a connection to the Internet from the Pocket PC, but is designed to still function while offline.

It is designed to be used with any of the many hundreds of RSS/OPML webdata sources available in the public domain. This way the user will have access to RSS-formatted news, sports, weblogs, etc. Whatever RSS/OPML compliant data you can find, PocketRSS will display it for you on your Pocket PC.

Edited by Wideawake: Added the CAB file zipped up for easy downloading.

I checked the website of this program, and it's not clear at all that it's free - sure it works if you register as suggested in the first post, but that may be more of a bug in his registration code then anything else. Anyone know for sure?

All that aside, this is a nifty rss reader... even scarfs podcasts.

The only thing to keep in mind is there is no more support for this program, sort of like WeatherPanel.
When it stopped working correctly in Pocket Breeze, I wrote to support and still have no answer. He used to be quick at answering, but seems to be wherever Martian went now!

If you click on the purchase link, it takes you to This Page, where it confirms that it is Free!

Thanks! Somehow missed that.

Ok I've gone through all of the settings for this reader but maybe I missed it.
It appears that only one feed runs on my today screen. How can I have multiple feeds appear on my today screen? I'm currently receiving 3 feeds but only one appears on the today screen.

Color me ignorant if I'm missing something obvious.

Thanks in advance,
