The performance of the feed list is so slow, there's almost no point in using the app. As I scroll, the list updates very slowly. It seems that in particular the one-line article summaries and the display of the favicons is glacial, and this seems to affect the display of the unread counts, which of course is critical. The unread counts are often not displayed, and when they are, they are almost always wrong: either there is no unread badge for a feed when, in fact, there are unread articles; or vice versa. Sometimes if I wait about ten seconds, the display refreshes; but it's not always accurate. Sometimes a slight scroll up or down will trigger a refresh, but again, it's unreliable.

Very disappointing, considering that if it worked it would be brilliant.

Fully agree, experiencing a painfully slow (10 mins to update 30 feeds) plus 30 second wait after clicking before I can view anything. Love the new desktop client, but can someone have a look as to why it's failing on the ipo touch?

At least now the crashing-on-startup bug is apparently fixed (NNW iPhone 2.0.1) more people can get past that to experience all the other problems and lack of features compared with earlier versions.

Such a shame. NNW has gone from hero to zero.
