New Google Reader for iPhone, More Stupidity from Digg

Looks like Google released an improved Google Reader Mobile. An excerpt [emphasis mine] from the official GR Blog:

Today we're releasing a new beta version of Reader designed for the iPhone and other mobile phones with advanced browsers. You can use it by visiting http://www.google.com/reader/i/ on your phone.

My brief testing indicates that it works in MobileSafari as well as Opera Mini1. I then noticed some comments on Digg. I know, I know I shouldn't have looked…

Pixelpaws: Though they claim it'll work with any advanced mobile browser, it won't work in IE under Windows Mobile 6. So for those of us with "smart" phones other than the iPhone, it looks like this is pretty hit and miss.

lollers! Seriously? IE as an advanced anything is just a lollerskates-and-a-half. I've used IE on Windows Mobile 6 and, yes, it's still a piece-of-shit.

  1. The only other advanced mobile browser I am aware of — [Update: Looks like it works in the S60 Browser as well] [↩]
