RescoNeeews! is an innovative and user-friendly news reader that helps you to find and regularly receive relevant information from various web sources. It goes as far as to provide one-tap access to the news customized to your preferences.
Resco Neeews! connects you to the information flowing from CNN, BBC, NY Times, Google News, Flickr and hundreds of predefined high quality feeds and millions of blogs and feeds of your choice.
Resco Neeews! builds on familiar newspaper analogy. People can use a number of ways to create their newspapers - ranging from a simple selection up to the web searches or queries to the premium services. Resulting newspaper can be set up to update regularly and added to the Palm Launcher.
Unlike typical RSS readers the product requires minimum technical skills and demonstrates how easy can the relevant information land on your PDA.
Resco Neeews can also be included as part of the RescoSuite Package!
MsTechieQueen: LOVED this software & would buy it - IF it backed up! After resetting my phone, EVERYTHING - all my custom feeds & newspapers - was deleted! The preferences went back to the system default. Get that fixed first, Resco, and then I will buy.
nepacsman: I would give it 5 stars and a perfect rating but until the Home/return button issue is resolved on the 755 - I can't.
daveandjen1999: This application is fantastic. Very powerful and very intuitive. The podcasting support alone is worth the price. It supports podcast streaming and can resume the stream if you use Resco's built-in player. Setting up feeds is easy, or simply import an .opml file.
skyluc00mind: I've used for few months the beta version..It is the best thing I've seen in the long time.All downloads are kept on SD Card using .html format.you are in control when what & how much info you want to download or to delete.Very Easy to navigqte..Resco Team..Fantastic Job...
Version History
Version 2.40 | Sep 03, 2008
Offline article download
Articles have new download icon - an arrow oriented downwards. (Shortcut 'd' works as well.)
- By pressing this icon the full article is downloaded into the cache and the icon color changes.
- Next press of the download icon opens the local copy of the article.
- To download multiple articles press their download icons. (Even if the download is in progress.)
- Offline articles are downloaded into the image cache. (Note that once the cache gets filled, the oldest items - images or full articles - will be discarded.)
- Use Cache Options to suppress or allow the download of images belonging to the article.
- If you want to open original web article, use the classic way - the application menu.
The download always uses the skweezer compression
- This compression is efficient - substantially reduces the download size.
- The results are mostly satisfactory - usually better than the display of the original article.
- Google compression could not be used as it subdivides the page download into multiple sub-pages.
Other news
- Centro compatibility
- Possibility to schedule with 1 minute resolution.
- Web compression: Skweezer stopped working because of the URL change. v2.40 uses the new URL.
