RSS Feed Reader for the .NET Compact Framework or MMIT

Haiko Hebig posts a nice list of RSS Fee Readers here. I tried out NewsGator for Outlook, but I'm not overly impressed, and I surely won't be shelling out $30 bucks for it. I'm thinking of creating a dinky reader with the Microsoft Mobile Internet Toolkit, so that I can read RSS on my mobile phone. Before I do, I was wondering if anyone has heard of something like this out there...

The NewsGator folks have a mobile reader in their 2.0 product. Web based I think though...

I, too, am interested in a feed reader, yet for my Symbian OS. In the meantime I am using Russel Pooley's mobile page for the weblogs.asp.net feed.. I just browse to it with my WML browser on my phone.

Mobipocket 4.8 has the ability to read RSS feeds and download them automatically to your smartphone. I read my blogs in the tube every day. You might have to shell $15 for the eNews Creator unless someone has already created an eNews with the corresponding RSS feed and uploaded it on the Mobipocket website.
