Just import your subscriptions (OPML) to the website and choose which feeds you want mobile enabled. All configuration (adding,organizing etc) is done online so you never have to type anything on your mobile device. Your feeds are pushed to your mobile, just scan and click with ease. Feeds are cached, compressed, and stripped so that they are mobile optimized.

I gave this a try a few days ago. At the moment I prefer bloglines mobile (http://www.bloglines.com/mobile) with PIE and MultiIE, just the interface I guess.

However I emailed the LiteFeeds guys and they said they were going to add categories and offline reading to thier client. That'll beat bloglines hands down!

The offline reading is the thing I'm most interested in as I tend to spend alot of time without connection on my PPC

After trying out LiteFeeds I will not use my PocketPC Browser anymore, Litefeeds is much superior.
It saves huge on datacosts and much faster than my PPC browser (due to cached compressed feeds). I never have to type any URL's .... so for the first time I can actually say I surf on my mobile. Gotta check it out, best part is its free.
