Great little app Brian, perhaps a little heavy on the adverts, top and bottom doesn't leave much room for the content. But a wealth of options in there, I'll never be short of something interesting to read :)

Yeah, I'm cursed with a duff market :( It worked, once, no idea why, but never again since. So unless things are available as an apk, or from an alternative market I'm a bit stuck.

Yeah, I spent most of the weekend trying to find alternative sources for various app, with mixed results. So is it just me or does pocket gear not actually have World Newspapers available? Certainly didn't get any joy from their search...

Oh yes, so he did :) I tend to scan past urls that I cannot recognise, you never quite know where they're going to take you. Especially when browsing at work.

I'll give softpedia a look, I can't say I've been there yet.
