Does not support the one I use either but I'm going to have to seriously 
consider switching because I think Feedly is probably a more compatible option 
at this point. Leaning more toward Lire for iPhone right now over Feeddler 
although that may really not be the case. I'm just really dissatisfied with 
everything. Lire certainly supports Feedly.  And since the web interface for 
Bazqux is so bad, it's probably time to move away from it anyway.  I'm getting 
kind of tired of Vienna as well. I do like Vienna but am really not happy with 
the ability to get things into a convenient readable format from Vienna and 
recent builds have caused the interface to be a little more sluggish than I 
prefer.

Guess I can justify the $10 with the move away from Bazqux since it's the same 
price per year.  I just hope I like ReadKit enough to stay with it.

Anybody else have any comparison between ReadKit and Vienna?

Thus far, I have not objected to paying for Bazqux because it is rock solid and 
fast.

I've been really busy with work and have not had the chance to properly 
investigate this. Does anyone know why Feeddler is not properly opening 
articles in full text mode for many RSS feeds? I assume I am remembering 
correctly that it uses Instapaper as a mobilizer.  Is Instapaper the problem?

I only hope I can get something that moves me back to efficient news processing 
soon. I don't have a premium Instapaper account and don't particularly want to 
pay for it unless there is a reason to do so.


Is there not a trial version of ReadKit?

Got it thanks. It's a bummer it doesn't support the RSS service I use but I 
will have to switch I guess.
