Reading feeds from the Cellphone

I am not really a heavy cellphone user. Normally, I would use it to call or send sms or text messages. Although, as of late I seem to be using it a lot for using Internet-based services – emails and Web 2 applications. Recently, I have been trying the phone’s RSS Reader.

The Financial Costs:

Reading feeds from a cellphone can be done two ways accessing the Internet by Wifi or accessing the Internet by 3G. Both seem fairly reliable. Although the WiFi option is most of the time free and accessing by 3G will cost you money.

Ease of Use:

So far it was easy to set-up a feed into the phone’s feed reader. Similar to what you do when accessing through a computer one just has to subscribe. Two seconds and you are in.

Readability:
The posts that can be read are not full text. And is not as information heavy as its Interenet counterpart. It is basically just the post.

Initial Observations
Readings RSS feeds from the cellphone is practical, easy but at the moment seems to its limitations. Such limitations seem to include:

1. No full text
2. Not all data are included
3. Seems to be practical for only a few feeds.

Its not going to be your main feed reader. However, It seems to be useful as your carry-anywhere RSS reader and Internet device. And its for free if you can access WiFi. And can be used anywhere and anytime as long as there is power in the battery and you have WiFi or 3G connection.

More in a couple of days.
