I went to Samsung’s Mobile Roadshow a week ago and saw the line up of phones they had for the year. And it was a plethora, an over abundance or more appropriately a fullness of mobile phones that day on display. It was basically a cellular phone for every person who needs one and can afford. But before you think A Feed Is Born has turned into Cellphone9 let me explain why I thought two particular cellphones were interesting.

Looking for a phone ? Check the specs and features of these two Samsung phones, SGH-i780 business phone and the Samsung Soul :

Did you see it ? I even placed it in Bold like this. Both top of the line phones carry an RSS reader of one sort of the other. Does this show how RSS is becoming a vital mobile application that it is now part of the bundle Samsung’s two top phones now offers. One more question for the SGH-i780 why is the RSS reader distinctly separate from the podcast reader?

This just goes to show you that a an RSS Reader could be a practical tool for the mobile lifestyle. So if you are looking for cellphone buy one that has an RSS Reader.
