I stumbled across the new site today before I heard about the announcement.
A) It's very cool
B) It doesn't work very well.
Q1) Why is there no "Remember me" checkbox to save my login info via a cookie? Typing passwords on the iPhone is no fun.
Q2) Why are full text feeds truncated? I went back to using the old mobile URL because it showed me full text of the feeds that provide full text. Please let me get full text on my iPhone via the m.newsgator.com site!
Q3) Is there a way for me to mark all entries on a given page as read? Is there a way for me to mark only some of them as read? The former is essential, but I couldn't always find it. The latter is a big thing that I miss when using the old mobile URL. Ideally I would like to be able to check boxes next to several articles (or all) to have them be marked them as read (i.e. let me mark all the ones I want to mark read all at the same time and then submit them only once). Don't have anything happen just when I click "Mark As Read"... EDGE is too slow for that.
Comment/Suggestion: It would be nice to have an option to turn off images and then load them on a specific page if needed. Some blogs I read (e.g. PalmAddicts) love to include a lot of images that I don't really need to see. Others (indexed) are useless w/o images. Give me some control over that (but always let me load images if they are disabled for a given page and I decide I want to see them).
Comment/Suggestion: I'd love for the mobile/m.newsgator.com site to NOT just sort alphabetically, but inherit the "sort by attention" that I use in NetNewsWire.
That's all for now. The password thing is the worst part of the new site. The truncation is the second worst. I will continue to use the old mobile site until those two are fixed.
