Hey Nicholas,

A few questions for ya. I was using Newsrack on the mac, and liked that you 
could just arrow up or down through the message title and once you moved over 
it, that marked it as read. With Read Kit does it do that? I guess I am looking 
for an RSS reader that quickly marks articles as read as I get thousands of 
articles a week. Also, to use Read Kit on the mac with Feed Wrangler on the 
iPhone, I assume you have to buy both? I saw that Feed Wrangler is $19 US for 
the year, which isn't to bad, but I'm looking to keep costs down as much as 
possible. I already paid for the now defunct Newsrack, which I loved for the 
most part, but searching for articles in Newsrack wasn't accessible. I also 
bought Lire and paid to upgrade on the iPhone, but now the sluggishness of Lire 
and not synching to a desktop client is turning me off. I love getting things 
in RSS and am not opposed to paying for it, but do want to keep my costs down, 
as it seems like every week, I want some new tech app. Thanks for the info. I 
guess let us know what you paid for, I did download Feed Wrangler on the 
iPhone, but saw you need a membership, and for some reason thought it cost. I 
guess Feed Kit doesn't sync itself but does have the ability to sync through 
Feed Wrangler? Am I understanding that correctly? Thanks again.
