SPB Software release SPB Insight
At this moment there are over 1000 popular news channels that are optimized for small screens and the number is growing rapidly, thanks to the open support community. All optimized channels are created by individuals and are not part of the program. These channels, as well as most popular RSS channels, are freely available through the Spb Insight Online Catalog. Available right on your device, with subcategories and sorted by popularity, the Online Catalog makes it easy to choose new interesting channels whenever you want. Spb Software House provides no preinstalled channels in this version.
Along with optimized channels, Spb Insight supports all versions of RSS and Atom news feeds, as well as importing feeds from local and online OPML files. Spb Insight provides channel and article thumbnails, as well as intuitive one hand navigation to make the user interface as easy to use as possible.
Spb Insight can work without a desktop computer, too - just use your wireless internet connection to add and update channels. To save traffic and time, you have control over what particular channels to update, in what order and whether to download pictures and full-text web pages or not. To save even more time, downloaded articles can be read right away, even while other articles and channels are being updated.
