Ever since I got my iPhone and started looking a bit deeper into all the available apps for it, I was struck by one thing that was very, very obviously missing: a solid feed-reader. Reading feeds on the iPhone is one of *the best* uses of the device IMHO, and seeing as how I am a FeedDemon addict as well as a "big fan" of Newsgator's beta web-based reader, it was only natural to wait and expect the fine folks at Newsgator to cook up an iPhone specific version of the web-based reader. Just a few days after this idea got into my head, I read multiple blog posts about my wish having been granted: Newsgator released an iPhone-specific feed reader! I was overjoyed at the news, raved about it for days, and tried to infect friends with my enthusiasm about the news. The fact that I can now read feeds in FeedDemon at home, in the web-based reader at work (like right now!) and now ALSO wherever the *** I happen to be using the iPhone and that all of them always stay perfectly in sync with each other is the reason man came up with the word "fantastic".
It's been a solid week since the news broke and I set the iPhone reader up on my phone, and can you believe that I am just as excited still as I was the day the iPhone reader landed?
I can't even explain why I'm so excited. I suppose it's because Newsgator's iPhone reader reminded me very clearly about just why I got an iPhone in the first place 
This thread has one purpose, and one purpose only: to send a BIG THANK YOU to the geniuses at Newsgator!
THANK YOU.

YOUR WELCOME... one of the greatest joys of building software is when you can have a positive impact on someone's digital experience AND when that person lets you know about it. Another great joy is creating cool software. So, I thank you for the very kind words and thank the team at NewsGator for providing an environment and infrastructure where we can build cool things!

Amen! I completely share your enthusiasm, and have posted my own message to the same effect.
This is BY FAR the most important Web application on my iPhone.

You are quite welcome. I merely gave praise where praise was due. I'm glad to hear you are excited to be part of the team at Newsgator. It's a good sign of a good work environment at the company, and with a good work environment, I'm not surprised you guys are pumping out quality products!
I'm an aspiring developer myself and look forward to experiencing both of the types of joy you mentioned 
Keep up the great work!

Oh yeah. Easily! I can't think of anything that comes even close. Also, it's cool to see I'm not the only one who got blown away by Newsgator's iReader

Can I get an "Amen Brother"!
Newsgator Mobile on the iPhone has to be one of THE PREMIERE iPhone web apps, demonstrating that you don't *need* a high-speed connection or a fat client, to enable some of the really great scenarios. You just have to be *smart* in which bytes you push down the wire...
