For the past 3 days my cycle has been study, exam, come home, pass out! Looks like it got the best of me, Ed from e-series.org beat me to posting a review of the brand spanking new Reuters application. He does a good job and it’s worth checking it out just for the screenshots alone.

Now as for my own personal review: This is the first Flash Lite application I have ever run in my life. It was stunning, simply stunning. Beautiful as can be. Sadly it turned out to be a pretty girl with a lobotomy in disguise. Once you get passed the bling you realize how horrible this application is. First of all there is practically a sentence on every page, so you have to scroll A LOT. Some stories just have a brief summary listed and that’s it!

Do I recommend you install this on your phone? Absolutely not

What do I recommend? Install Opera Mini, go to Reuters.com and subscribe to an RSS feed of your choice

So much for this being my first Flash Lite application, I can see this languages potential but right now it’s more for show then for actual use. Hey Alessandro, want to write an RSS reader in Flash?
