Welcome to Mobileplay's blog. I want to thank everyone who has been helping us to test our new software for viewing content on your mobile device.
Let's face it, the "browser" model of content delivery on mobile devices-- opening a browser, typing in a a URL, establishing a connection, waiting for a page to download, waiting for the next page to download, losing your connection in the middle of the download... is sheer agony. Browsers were designed for desktop computers with mouses and keyboards and generally reliable connections. We offer an alternative.
With a couple of taps or clicks we will go and fetch your favorite content--optimized by our software for viewing on your device, cache it, and allow you to view it offline. And unlike mobile RSS Readers, we have partnered with content providers like Astrology.com, USA TODAY, The Sporting News, Fodor's, Weather.com to bring you the full article. Not just a headline and synopsis.
Coming soon are some really powerful applications to bring you restaurant & hotel listings, movie listings in your area, as well as cool ad-supported (and thus free) games, puzzles (Sudoku!), trivia, and more. Stuff RSS readers could never even dream of doing.
We are still in beta and still a work in progress so we hope our users will help us to make this an even better service. So send us your feedback and happy syncing!

i agree... browsing on a phone/smartphone is not like when you are at home on a pc.. you know what sites you want to visit, you don't really just surf.. and you want it in a more visible phone..
back in my SK2 days, i used to run an app called Hipster.. it was basically a data aggregator like this mobileone seems to be..
i made a ton of modules for hipster, i don't code but i can do data mining for some reason.. hehe..
