AvantGo Channel
Ok people, what gives? I fired up AvantGo today to see how many un-used channels were chewing up my memory, and while a few of the channels were dead, the Pocket PC Thoughts channel worked. What the heck? How many other people are reading this site through AvantGo? Did they do a stealth re-neg on their promise to kill all custom channels? So many questions...

Works for me...
I never stopped reading this site through Avantgo, mostly because I was too lazy to delete any of my channels after they made all that noise about killing channels.

Me too!
Same here, never got around to deleting it, and it still loads.
Maybe they have been too lazy too.

Maybe they found out they were loosing too much of an audience at this site. I know for a fact they "waived" the fees at other high traffic sites.
If AvantGo stuck to their guns on the pricing, they would have to close their doors tomorrow. Why they cannot see the logic of the Mazingo pricing model is beyond me. :roll:

I HAD deleted the Pocket PC Thoughts channel, but just added it again and it works just fine. Mazingo's not bad, but I had really gotten used to reading it along with the other 9 Avantgo channels I've got. This is great news.

Ditto to the Lazy thing, and since it never stopped working I figured no reason to go and get all motivated. This is by far my favorite web site so it all works out for the greater good of the Universe that the Avantgo channel still works. :roll:

It only went away on my pocket pc for 1 channel (a Belgian newspaper).
All the rest is still active.

The only channel I lost was (sadly) a local news station. 
What's kinda funny is that the PocketGamer.org lite channel I had was still syncing, they just stopped updating it... :?

AvantGo Channel
I read the thoughts every day on the way home from office, synced with AvantGo. I tried several times to set up Mazingo on my IPAQ, but it did not work properly. So I hope you stay on AvantGo. P.S.: The format of the reply section changed some time ago. They are difficult to read on the small screen. Go on with the very best ppc site. Andreas.
