Improvements in this new version include a new touch-oriented interface, automatic and scheduled updates, smart scrolling in articles, and a bunch of fixes in overall stability and performance. Since it's not available yet in our affiliate store, you can grab it directly from <a href="http://www.spbsoftware.com/pocketpc-software/news/" target="_blank">Spb's Web site</a>. Though the Web site doesn't mean Windows Mobile Standard smartphones, the information I was emailed does, so this should be compatible with both platforms.</p>

I just did an OTA download and install of the trial version.
It installed okay, imported the OPML and updated the channels okay.

But the darndest thing. I don't seem to have any option to actually open and read any of the feeds. :confused:
