I really like the mobile version of newsgator when accessing from my iPod touch.  It works well, and the UI is very clean and intuitive.

Couple of comments:

- would be nice to be able to reduce the font size in portrait mode to fit more feed items on the screen.  currently, I can see 2 feed items and would like to be able to see 3-4

- would like for at least the user name to be remembered

Are you logging out each time when you exit the reader? If so, you don't need to do that. You can simply close it and when you re-open the reader you will already be logged in.

Secondly, try refreshing that page. You should see about six items in the screen at any given time.

Hi Keith,

for the login, yes, when I do log out, it doesn't remember my login.  as you note, just don't log out and it's not a problem.

for the feed item list (i.e., the list that shows the header and feed summary contents), the font size used is the same as the feed list (the names of the feeds) and I only see 2 summaries at most and usually just 1 1/2.  While I do like the readability with the current font size, if the size could be changed by the user and dropped a couple of points, maybe I could see 4 items?   Also, between the feed items, there looks to be a full blank line at the end of an item, then the separator bar, then another full blank line, then the next feed item - is the blank line above and below the separator line necessary?  (removing them would add 2 more text lines on-screen)

btw - this is on an iPod touch
