The internet is full of information. Nowhere else you can find so much up-to-date knowledge.

And the best: most of this is free. Wouldn’t it be great, if you could access all these resources from everywhere, every time, via your smartphone?

Now you can! Smaato news gives you access to thousands of free RSS channels. RSS is a format offered by nearly all bigger websites, which delivers the websites important contents without graphical overhead.

Other than mobile web browsers, it delivers only the text and important pictures and not megabytes of formatting images etc. which are useless and out of place on your mobile device.

- Default channels for starting out-of-the-box

Pretty user friendly. Most importantly, unlike some other applications that connect via GPRS and then leave it to you to disconnect once done, this software actually disconnects from GPRS after sync is performed.
