Comments and Reviews
Reeder is still the most good-looking RSS reader I've ever used, but in terms of functionality, Newsrob is really great on a tablet. You can navigate articles with your volume key, by swiping side-to-side, or by tapping the opposite sides of the screen, making your tablet feel like a full-fledged ereader. Plus, the transition from feed view to web view is totally flawless. You barely notice when you switch between the two, so it doesn't disturb your reading. And of course, offline caching is nice.
Slow Feeds for iPhone. The best. I went through probably 30 before I found this wonderful app.
