empeg RSS - 12/04/2006 16:32

Has anyone been using the empeg BBS RSS feeds? I can't seem to get them to operate correctly. Granted, my RSS viewer isn't the best, most dedicated one, but I like Protopage a lot and it seems to work on many other feeds I've tried.

Basically what happens is that after I put in the link, and Protopage grabs the feed, I end up with a bunch of really old threads, and I don't get any new ones. Is anyone else getting the same thing?

*edit*
And does anyone know of a good RSS reader for Palm? I've got a Treo 600 (w/ unlimited data - yes!) and would love to get feeds on it.

All of the available RSS readers for Palm suck. mRSS is the closest thing to acceptable and it regularly crashes my Treo 650. If they ever updated it, I might consider trying it again.

NewsGator is allegedly working on a J2ME based RSS reader that syncs with their RSS service, but it's not out yet.

That is because you're not logged in from that location.


Edit:

Or...maybe not. I'm seeing this in the RSS:
<!-- RSS generation done by UBB.threads(tm) on 06/11/2005 13:09 -->

Is it not generating the updated RSS anymore?

According to the Treonauts Top 100 Treo Software List, the recommended RSS reader is Quick News. I've never used it though, so that's all I can help.
