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

Except when you have a duff market then go to http://bit.ly/h7fUGr.

@samtheeagle thanks. yes the adds are a pain but lots of newspapers i have friends in the usa so good for me.
@bitsink oh forgot people having issues with market i have been lucky no probs and i have downloaded 50+ apps to try out using the appbrain app since i have had the scroll the only issue is cant update google maps:(

[samtheeagle]

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.

[brianzion]

there are sites that give you the apk >>>> http://www.pocketgear.com/uk,en,gbp/270 ... ation.html

[samtheeagle]

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...

@samtheeagle bitsink posted the apk file link in a couple of posts back. i could not find it there either.

@samtheeagle have you browsed this site softpedia handheld? >>>>>> http://handheld.softpedia.com/deviceSoftware/8

[samtheeagle]

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.
