Hey Dan, Awesome article, I am pleased you like the app!

I am pleased to let you all know that the iPhoneOS 3.1.2 issue is now resolved with the latest update from the app store.

I like your suggestion’s, the colors I already had in-mind for a future release, but as for the caching, its a bit more tricky than first thoughts, as RSS feeds do not generally have a service that would allow you to check if your cached feed is out of date. You could download the whole RSS feed and check it against the cached version, this would still have the same amount of data usage, but would allow users to read cached data while you are out of signal.

The other option I have thought of would be to make a sync process, which would be a button to manually sync the RSS feed/feeds, which would download the RSS feed/feeds upon request, and cache the data, this would only use up data upon requesting a sync.

This is open for discussion or suggestion if anyone is interested .

Cheers,
Jarrad – iPhoneDeveloper
