Awasu is at least head and shoulders above all the other news readers out there, which is why I won't recommend any of the others. They just don't come close.
A very useful utility for keeping up to date with news. 4 stars out of 5.
Awasu stands out a mile in my opinion.
This is the only reader I've used that seems to have a real pride in its appearance.
It is really great what you are doing with Awasu.
